Tetris + Jenga = 99 Bricks

This is for all your people who are addicted to time-wasting flash games.

My best score so far was 448, but one of my coworkers legitimately scored 650 before his "structure" tumbled.

Enjoy!

I hate Tetris. I've got the mental agility to coordinate military strikes in countless real time strategy games, and

the hand-eye dexterity to place a bullet in the head of a moving target

in first person shooters, but for whatever reason I lack whatever

skills are necessary to force those infernal blocks into neat little

rows.

Fortunately, 99 Bricks is a game that plays to my strengths -- namely, stacking a really tall tower of the familiar four-block shapes.

As the title suggests, you'll be armed with 99 of the things, and

tasked with stacking them as high as you can. But there's a catch --

the bricks obey the laws of physics, so stack them at the wrong angle

and they'll tumble and fall, often taking a few more with them.

They also don't stick to one another like Tetris

blocks, resulting in a satisfying wobble every time you drop a brick

onto the pile. There's also a discard option, so you can simply throw

away a brick you don't particularly like, but you're still limited to

99.

The physics take a little getting used to, but once you've figured out how the blocks operate it's actually quite a bit of fun.
