Polyominoes 4.0 is copyright 1990-1993 by Kevin L. Gong.
Polyominoes 4.0 is really three games in one. In game mode, you have a very interesting strategy game in which you try to put the last piece on the board. The pieces can be flipped or rotated in any manner. With Version 4.0, you can use any of the over 30 different boards, or create one of your own using the Board Editor. In puzzle mode, you can try to place all the pieces on any of the boards. In spanning puzzle mode, you try to ╥span╙ the board with the fewest number of pieces. You can use pentominoes, tetrominoes, or trominoes. The program keeps track of all of your best efforts.
Polyominoes is ShareWare, $7.00 registration fee. It should work on any Macintosh with either System 6 or 7.
