It says a lot of good things that Mercury Meltdown Revolution manages to sell out before I even started typing up its article, in roughly 5 minutes. Well, you can get this game on the cheap plenty of places, so I figured it'd be worth a discussion anyway.

Mercury Meltdown Revolution is a "guide a ball through a maze" game, only your ball is a blob of mercury that you can affect with various machines - freezing it, changing its colors, splitting it into multi-blobs. You also seem to control the blob directly with tilting rather than tilting the entire world, as you did in Kororinpa. Mercury Meltdown Revolution has a 77% Metacritic average that ranges from 90% to... well, let's say 50%. The lowest score is actually a 30% from Play Magazine that is an abominably terrible review that barely discusses the game at all, and mostly just complains about Wii games not being story-oriented.

Screens and a video behind the cut. The clue for the next deal is "Perfect your polysyllabic proficiency," which is probably My Word Coach. Meh.

Mercury Meltdown Revolution was awesome. It reminded me a bit of The Incredible Machine and its ilk. I probably wouldn't shell out MSRP for it but $10 is an incredible steal; no wonder it went so fast.
