Two SameGame Clones

The first real update since 2008-01-31: Two SameGame clones. They are both for 32-bit Windows, they are both from about the same time, yet they are quite different.

TileFall by Adam Dawes is a 1998 UK game. It is one of these comparatively rare 32-bit Windows games that run in 16 colors. Simple in its appearance, it has three field sizes between 6×5 and 16×8 and 2–5 colors.

SameGame by Olof Tjerngren has fewer configuration options, the field is fixed to 20×14, but it is fully skinnable. Skins can define the position of some control elements and even the number of colors. It is a 1999 game from Sweden.
