If any of you have Vista Ultimate, Microsoft released a new game as an Ultimate Extra you can get through Windows Update.
Its called Tinker, and you control a robot on a board, and you have to complete the level and get to the exit before the robot's batteries run out. To win the level with the highest ratings you also have to do it with a minimal number of moves, in a minimal amount of time, and collecting extras on the level.
You rearrange barriers on the level by using things like magnets, lasers, pushing blocks on switches, and making use of elevators.
The background graphics are scenes based on Japanese origami and furoshiki patterns, and the music is a combination of nuevo tango and jazz styles.
You can also download a level editor from Microsoft, to allow you to create your own level sets.
