Monday morning is the time for really grueling work tasks we don't want to do. WiiWare's latest release, Overflow, tries to make a game out of such drudgery.
In Overflow, an experimental machine is leaking fuel and you must contain the damage. You use planks and other items to direct the flow of the fuel so it can be recollected. Will you repair the machine in time for the worldwide energy symposium? The DSiWare's new releases are headlined by another installment of the Puzzle Quest series. Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords, a puzzle/RPG hybrid, takes you to a world overrun by the undead. The single-player campaign is accompanied by a multiplayer face-off mode so you can match wits with friends.
