Instructions
Try to make sets of 4 or more eggs of the same colour (touching, but
not diagonally) and they will explode! This dumps bad eggs on the other
player (the amount is related to the number of eggs that go up in one go
and the number of cascades, i.e. eggs exploding at separate times) If you
make a set next to a bad egg, it will disappear. The current score is shown
in the title bar and the next piece to drop is at the top of the player's
playing area.
Basically, watch the demo and see how the computer does it!
If you're feeling really adventurous, you can try the two player mode
using the keyboard!

About The Original Author
This version of Super Foul Egg is a port of a Java Applet written by
Owain Cole during his time at Warwick University. Owain also wrote the RISC
version, which is still, after at least 5 years, one of the most popular PD
titles on the format. The game is a clone of an Amiga game of the same name,
which was itself a remake of Puyo Puyo.
