Pogo Island offers an easy to learn but challenging to master level of enjoyment that will make hours feel like fleeting minutes. Each of the games -- Word Whomp, Poppit!, Phlinx, Tri-Peaks Solitaire and Squelchies -- is skinned to a playful island theme that transports you to an island getaway. Above and beyond the five puzzle games is a fun and unique meta-game that sets players on an island-wide adventure mission to reunite with stranded Pogo mascots. Along the way, players will collect tokens which can either be translated into bragging rights amongst peers or transferred to Pogo.com, where players can reap the benefits of being a token guru.
Features:
* Word Whomp – Whomp adorable gophers and spell as many words as you can from a given set of letters before the clock runs out.
* Poppit! – Just pop and go! Release hidden "prizes" in this puzzle favorite by popping groups of two or more balloons of the same color.
* Phlinx – Create groups of colored stones, collect ancient power-ups, and make your way to the bonus round in this action puzzle.
* Tri-Peaks Solitaire – A fun and fast-paced solitaire game where you remove cards to uncover tokens and powerup bonus cards.
* Squelchies – In this puzzle game, match Squelchies by color to release them from the board.

There are five main puzzle games,
1. word whomp, in which you have to figure out the words which can be made from a series of letters given. This is a good game, thoguh i am often frustrated that words I KNOW exist are not accepted, then really rather dubious ones are included instead (and, since it is an American game, several US spellings are also included, which can drive you a bit potty when you fail to spot them).
2. Plinx, which is a variation on the "coloured blobs advance slowly down the screen, you have to shoot more blobs to make them fall off in groups" family of games. This is good fun, but not my favourite (a personal preference only)
3. Tri peaks solitaire, which is a fabulously addictive solitaire card game.
4. Poppit, in which you have to pop coloured balloons to release presents. I am still not entirely sure how this game's rules actually function, but it is fun to play even so.
5. Squielchies, which is a "line up coloured blobs to make them disappear" game. very fun, but sadly inferior to Magical Drop (a PS1 game on the same premise, which I love - this has spoilt it for me sadly!).
I gave the game four stars instead of five because there are a few annoying features (such as the inadequate instructions on poppit, and the fling your friends into the ship game), but overall this is very worthwhile and a great find for fans of Puzzle games on the DS
