: Yes, it is similar to Same Gnome, but I think the goal is slightly different. With Implode, you need to remove at least three contiguous blocks instead of two in Same Gnome, and Implode's objective is to clear the entire board instead of maximizing the score. I'm not sure if Same Gnome guarantees that some sequence of moves clears the board as Implode does; I believe Simon Tatham's puzzle collection contains a Same Gnome clone with such a guarantee, though. —[[User:Leejc|Joe]] 01:21, 27 February 2008 (EST) |

General Reaction
My small child (preschool age) really likes Implode. Especially the smiley face that it displays after successfully clearing a screen. He calls it "my BOOM game" due to the silly noises that I made when we first started playing it. Except for the finer points of strategy, he is now able to play it by himself. I agree that some audible cues would be good eventually. Bouncey 12:42, 19 January 2008 (EST)
- Thanks for the feedback! I'll have to investigate how to make noise on the XO. Any preference as to the sounds the game should make? —Joe 00:59, 21 January 2008 (EST)
