    This game is gay. Perhaps I'd have a better explanation if I could find any way to relate to it other than trying to drag my brain back to the pre-nintendo/sega era. But since that's how I probably would have described it then, it's only fitting they get that now. (This game would have died a horrible death back then, so why make it now?)

    If you played 10,000,000 and want more (or even think you might want more), then You Must Build a Boat is the game for you. If you like match-threes, You Must Build a Boat is the game for you. And if you want to forget all your social and professional obligations, stay up way too late for about a week straight, and feel tired all the time? Well, You Must Build a Boat is the game for you.

    Dedicating more attention to it than that may prove to be a bit tedious (not least because of the simple, repetitive music) and the design lends itself far better to touch controls for mobile devices than a mouse, so your better bet is to grab it on the phone and take it with you places.

    A moreish snack, You Must Build A Boat is whimsical enough to make you forget how efficiently it's sapping your attention.
