So I went back to Kongregate to see if there was anything interesting to play, and indeed, under the hot new games section was Gen, a twisted little puzzle game that put a little extra punch in my day.

Basically, you control a sphere with the power to attract other, smaller spheres, and you’ve got to guide these spheres to the safety of the main sphere.  I’m not sure why the spheres are gone, or why touching spheres to things around you kills them, but the key thing is, this is a diabolical little puzzler that’ll test your every brain cell.  Seriously, if you want a way to perk up your brain in the morning, bust out one of these puzzlers and try to guide some spheres.  You’ll find yourself in a much better mood, between the relaxing music and the mindbending puzzles.  You even manage to feel a genuine sense of accomplishment after carrying through a level, and it’s not every game that can do that.

If you like a good puzzle with some calming music that’s fast in, fast out, then Gen is the game for you.
