Velcro Mind is a fun and unique little freeware game that plays like a classic game of Simon crossed with the Mac classic Crystal Quest. Your goal is to move the multicolored Velcro circle around the screen to collect all the floating balls and deliver them to the four hands that stick out from four sides of the screen.

Velcro Mind is not as simple as it sounds. To begin with, you can only pick the balls up by rotating the Velcro circle around so that the color of the circles side that touches the ball is the same color as the ball. You must then deliver the ball to the hand of the same color. The game gets progressively more difficult as the balls come out faster and faster, forcing you to be quicker with your mouse or its game over. Overall, a fun timewaster that definitely offers much more gameplay than what its tiny size (40KB zipped) may suggest. Two thumbs up!
