- One-Line Description:
-
- An MS Windows application for playing/solving various polyform puzzles.
-
- Description:
-
- MCM Productions brings several polyform puzzles together in a single
- MS Windows application. OOG, The Object Orientation Game lets you
- play with and attempt to solve the puzzles of Tangrams, Pentominoes
- and Hexagons. Besides providing multiple polyform puzzles in one
- application, OOG separates itself from similar programs by including
- many great features.
-
- OOG's most exciting feature is the ability to create your own puzzles
- which can be saved to disk and then exchanged with other users of OOG.
- All of OOG's shape maneuver operations (move, rotate and flip) are
- performed using a two or three button mouse and at the conclusion of an
- operation OOG automatically snaps the game pieces together giving you
- perfectly aligned shapes every time. OOG detects, automatically,
- whenever you find a solution for a puzzle. If you're having trouble
- solving a puzzle you can even ask for a hint, ask to see the solution,
- or you can save your progess on the puzzle so you can try again later.
- OOG's player progress tracking feature remembers which puzzles you've
- solved for each polyform. These key features plus the easy to use
- interface make OOG a great way to challenge yourself with polyform
- puzzles.

- operation if your system does not have a math coprocessor. If your
- computer's processor is a 486DX or higher, or a 386 with an installed
- 387 math coprocessor, you should NOT have any slow down problems.
