Triple Town (A puzzle strategy Game)

Try to build the greatest city in the game of Triple Town.

This is a game that can be played for hours or just for minutes. You'll have to think several turns ahead if you want to avoid inevitable gridlock as unfinished buildings, barbarians and wizards start to pile up. And sometimes, if you're lucky, you'll be helped along by a magical crystal (which combines with anything) or a powerful bomb (which wipes nuisances off the board). But luck won't save you forever!

Did You Know.....

1) You don't need to own a Kindle to download and read Kindle books from Amazon. Go to the Kindle Support Page at Amazon to get your Kindle App for the Ipad, Iphone, BlackBerry, Android, Windows 7 phone, PC or Mac.

2) This app synchronizes your current page and bookmarks among all of your devices that are registered in the same Amazon account. For example you were reading from your Kindle before bed. The next day at lunch you can use your smartphone to pick up where you left off the night before. I personnally think this is really neat. I don't want to read for hours on my Droid phone, but for 15 minutes or so at lunch it is a great option.

3) As of Dec. 30th, 2010 lending of eligible Kindle books became available. Of course there are restrictions, but the borrower does not need to own a Kindle. They just need to be using a free Kindle reading app for Android, PC, Mac, iPad/iPhone, or BlackBerry devices.

4) In summary, the Kindle Store at Amazon is about eBooks and just not for Kindle users.

I love to feel pages between my fingers, but sometimes it is a lot easier to swipe the pages with my finger on a screen. Enjoy.

    do you know if all the older Kindle models will let you select links like in quiz games? some people think you can only play games on the touch or fire, but i think if it has a select wheel you can highlight the link and select or click it, what do you think?
  • RandomChuck Jan 28, 2012 @ 1:48 am | delete
    I'm with another commenter here; I had no idea you could play games on a Kindle. Neat.

    I think I'll be playing text adventures on my Kindle. I still love them.
  • Maximilian Buckstern Jun 14, 2011 @ 2:27 pm | delete
    I interpreted the idea with playing "on the Kindle" very literally. Lately I produced a Kindle-eBook ("Fun Games Pure - Game boards") just with fields of popular board games (Chess, Nine Men's Morris, Checkers, Backgammon, Ludo, etc.). This gives the user the possibility to convert his/her Kindle at home or while traveling into a game board. Very simple. Always available. You just need to have a few small playing pieces or chessmen. Or you and your fellow players improvise. Suitable are buttons, beans, pieces of wood, paper, etc. Just anything that does not leave any dirt or scratches on the screen.
    Some people think it is silly to play like this on the Kindle. Others think it's cool. :-)

    Huh. I didn't know you even could get games on the Kindle.
