Pipe Mania tries, with limited success, to introduce a bit more to the familiar gameplay you've likely played before. That you can still get your fix on that -- and for free -- online means there's not a whole lot of incentive to get involved here. The additions to things really only tend to muck it up most of the time, though, and while the game is fun, the addition of a limited story, characters and added complications really just makes it all, well, more complicated, which is the opposite of why most people would pick up a game like this in the first place.

In Pipe Mania you must lay down a pre-ordained set of pipes on a tiled grid in order to keep the constantly flowing Flooze moving for as long as possible without it spilling out. The game requires quick thinking, hand-eye co-ordination, forward thinking and keen spatial awareness.
