Mingle Magnet is a simple puzzle game of the falling block variety. The player oversees a 10 x 10 square field where the first four rows (three on easy) have been filled by blocks. Each block shows one of three symbols, a dark gray circle, a light gray circle, and a white circle. When ever any of blocks with matching symbols touch they will form a link. By moving the cursor over a chain and clicking on it the player will be given points based on its size on the chain will be removed. The goal is to get a large score while making sure that new pieces can still enter the field. Once no more pieces can enter the game ends. Blocks fall at the same time one square apart, when the next set of blocks fall they will occupy the space given by the previous drop. The "magnet" aspect of Mingle Magnet come into play in how the player can control the placement of the blocks. All the blocks are attracted to a magnet which, although not seen, can be placed on any side of the field. All blocks will be drawn to the magnet. For example, if one has the magnet at the south of the field and then puts it to the north what was the top of the block pile will now be the bottom, and blocks will fall onto what was the bottom. The direction of the magnet is indicated by a magnetic field animation behind the action. This game is played vertically.

Pig Mock is an action game where you, Pig Mock, must catch dropped eggs and transfer them to funnels at the side of the screen. The eggs are dropped by Thunder Pants who are some creatures living in the clouds. Pig Mock has a frying pan with which to collect the eggs, Pressing up allows the eggs to be thrown upwards, and any Thunder Pants hit by a red egg will fall from the cloud, before eventually being replaced. Dropped eggs will stay on the floor, until cleaned up by Uncle Dust-pan who periodically crosses the screen, eating the smashed eggs. After eating enough eggs, Uncle Dust-pan will grow in size and cannot be jumped. Each round of Pig Mock is concluded when 15 eggs have been collected. To make matters more difficult, there are mounds on the floor which can cause Pig Mock to trip and become momentarily dazed. Later levels also have a mole which attacks from below the ground. Pig Mock may dispatch the mole by hitting them with the frying pan once they are above ground. Contact with Uncle Dust-pan or the mole, or being hit by an egg will cause Pig Mock to lose a life. The rounds increase in difficulty by changing the number of mounds, the number of clouds containing Thunder Pants, and the tenaciousness of the mole.
