Colors are Neat! Blocks are Okay!


If rearranging blocks of color is your thing then you are in luck my friend. First entry. This pretty sweet flash game Coign of Vantage. While using your mouse, or mouse like device, flip and rotate the field of pixels until you form the image in the top right hand corner. Hint: the smaller, more distant blocks go in the foreground. This game gets pretty addictive once you get the hang of it and the music will give you the feeling of being in the waiting room of a sophisticated dentist (and who doesn't enjoy that?). On a side note, I also learned that the word 'coign' refers to a projecting corner or angle of a wall or building. The phrase 'coign of vantage' means a favorable position for observation or action. The more you know... Next up. For those looking to test their color differentiating abilities head on over here. It even gives you a color IQ at the end that you can use to mock and ridicule those silly color blind people. What a bunch of weirdos.
