WEBSITE OF THE DAY -- Statetris

http://www.mapmsg.com/games/statetris/usa/
Since so many people loved last week’s Traveler IQ game (http://www.johnnyjet.com/folder/archive/WebsiteOfTheWeek07252007.html), I thought I’d give you a heads-up about a new online geography game. This one is not as difficult as the Traveler IQ challenge and it has an old-school feel. Think Tetris. Remember that arcade game? Well, this free game is called Statetris and the goal is to stack game pieces, shaped like the 50 states, in the right place. Testing your knowledge of US geography, players use the arrow keys to move side to side and the space bar to speed up the fall.
