Logical game "Blockhead" is to form words.
You can play against your PocketPC or other player.There is a 5-letter word in the middle of the gaming field, consisting of 25 cells.You are to concoct new word which consists of the letters presenting on the field and one letter you add to.

You have first move.
There is a 5-letter word in the middle of the gaming field, consisting of 25 cells. You are to find new word which consists of the letters are already on the field and one letter you add to.
Longer word you form, more points you get.

Then adding new letter opponents makes a move and so on, one by one. Words cannot be repeated in single game
Game ends when no free cells left or
no more words can be found. Player who has more points wins.
New word formed of letters you have in order one by one in any direction from cell down, up, right or left, but not across.

Can't access your site, relo. "The server www.relopda.com could not be found."

Got there and downloaded the demo. Can't wait to check it out!

[Edit]

Downloaded the cab version and tried to install, and after a second it told me the installation had failed   I will try the exe install when I get home tonight.

I tried the PocketPC exe install and still got an error almost immediately saying that it could not be installed.  Too bad, because I really wanted to try it out.

I just saw your listing for Blockhead on Clickgamer.  Congratulations!  Unfortunately, I still can't install it on my device.  I tried downloading it directly from Clickgamer, and I still get the problem where as soon as it tries to install once it's copied over to my device, it tells me the install was unsuccessful and I need to try it again.

Hello relo
I just tried it and the graphics are great, the sound especially the drain on Clear is wonderful, in fact everything is wonderful. Well done.

There was a small issue in that at first I couldn't get your 'keyboard' to show, and eventually tried clear, then it did, however I must be missing something because if I tap an existing letter it shows in red below on its own, but tapping squares doesn't seem to bring up the keyboard you provide and of course clear takes it back to the beginning.
[edit] perhaps it doesnt show if a suitable word is not in the dictionary??

Sadly, I still can't get the game to install.  I've tried the .exe from both Clickgamer and your web page, as well as the .cab download from your page.  Is there any way you could just provide a .zip or .rar of the demo files that I could just stick on my machine to play?

Okay... but how about a non-install, non-cab demo version of Blockhead for the PPC?  I'd really like to try it on my PocketPC, but can't ever seem to get any of your installs to work.

I never was able to get this to work with my main device (a Dell Axim X5 running WM2003).  However, I recently came into a WM6 device (thanks, Andrew), and I was able to install this game on that device.  It did give me a warning that the game might not run because it was compiled for an earlier device, but it installed and actually did run none the less.  It seems like a pretty sweet game, but the demo only let me play for a minute or so, which was very disappointing.  This is definitely a nice showcase of what PPL can do, though.
