Chock-A-Block is a fun and addictive puzzle game of organization and logic. The game focuses on sorting, organizing, and forward thinking rather than arcade reactions and agility. Slide shapes into the grid from any side, filling the grid with blocks. Any solid lines formed from side to side or top to bottom will vanish! Continue fitting shapes, and don't run out of space! The simple game rules present new players with a fun an entertaining game. The subtle and cleverly disguised logic offers a challenge to advanced logic game fans. This game is a natural progression from Shoecake Games earlier

"Fun"? Not really. "Addictive"? Oh, please, gimme a break!
It's about as fun and addictive as a bowl of cold, gloppy oatmeal. It really doesn't have much going for it. I found it a big yawn.
20 bucks for this???!!!! It really should be freeware, but there are free games available that put this one to shame.
Sorry developer, but it's back to the drawing board for you.
I found Chock-A-Block most unengaging; it didn't hold my interest for long. There's none of that "sizzle" that keeps one wanting to come back for more.
The game reflects a lack of ingenuity and creativity on the part of its creator, imo. And the graphics are lackluster, to say the least. I don't think the developer has any sense of what makes a game seductive, what makes a game reach out and pull you in.
At $20, it's absurdly overpriced .... but then, I wouldn't be willing to pay anything for it.
But who knows, you might find it the greatest thing since pickled herring in sourcream.....in which case it might be worth $8, but not a penny more.
