After catching up on television recordings during the flight back from San Jose, I still had some down time. Crime Puzzle managed to keep me occupied with puzzle matching of the Bejeweled-style of play. The loose premise behind the game suggests a Russian Count has stolen a prized philatelic collection. It's your job to track it down by clearing levels. The more levels you clear, the closer you get to tracking down this hot handed philatelist. Just like Bejewled, you swap pieces on the screen to create matches, which removes pieces from the board and gradually clears the screen to advance you to the next level. Pieces occasionally become occluded by on screen debris, requiring you to generate bonus artifacts to uncover the pieces. The playing pieces are a slick looking collection of postage stamps. Game play is free for the first sixty minutes, which takes you halfway to San Jose from Seattle.
