Additional information
Detailed Description: Included free with every Xbox 360 System, this Xbox Live Arcade puzzle game is designed by Alexey Pajitnov, the internationally-known creator of Tetris. You will spend your time rotating groups of different colored hexagons, attempting to group them together and wipe them from the board. Special blocks add points in the equation.

Even the music changes to a gripping song ala "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" when a bomb drops in.
