We thought it would be fun to review some of the casual games we currently have available in our JA Casual Game Center. Needless to say, these games are very addictive and while our enthusiastic reviews are, for the most part short, the time spent playing these games is not. Once you have read the review, drop by the JA Casual Game Center and download a free trial version of the game for yourself, but remember - you have been warned!

The game is designed for maximum enjoyment without any of that bothersome frustration that tends to lurk within the genre. Praise you, Nevosoft!

Basically, players follow a map to locate hidden treasure. In Classic Mode, the game is so forgiving that if a level is too punishing, you have the option of skipping it after a couple of tries. This feature insures that you never get hung up anywhere. Oh yeah.

Even if you manage to do yourself in, you can re-enter the game and pick things up right where you left them without having to start completely over. What a relief.

For me, these things made Treasure Island infinitely enjoyable -- but I haven't even gotten to the best part yet! After each completed level, you're treated to an assortment of totally outrageous dancing skeletons. Words can't do them justice -- you should download this game and see for yourself. They're absolutely priceless!

So yar, ye mateys, and listen up (here comes some corn, but I have to say it): Treasure Island is yo-ho-ho and a barrel of fun!!
