The PDA is dead. Long live King Peggle!


Like many professional users I am not mourning the loss of the PDA in general, but like many professionals I admit to missing one thing that was hidden away in the depths of my PDA personal files directory: Bejeweled. This incredibly addictive and supremely time wasting little game, developed by PopCap co-founder Jason Kapalka, was the first ‘casual’ game title to be inducted into the Computer Gaming World Hall of Fame (in 2004) for 19 years. Before Bejeweled, the last entrant was Tetris. If you have ever played it then you will recall how difficult it is to stop lining up rows of the same colored jewels just in order to see them explode and gather up the points bonuses.
