It's name began with D and I think it was a two word named game who's second name was also D.
The object was to get rid of like blocks (like mahjong) but the blocks had to be situated such that no more than two straight lines could be drawn between them.
It's a game, along with bejewelled, that I played a lot like 5 or 6 years ago.
What's it's name?
Is it still extant?

Nobody knows?
The squares started out in a grid (full) and the object was to empty the grid before the time ran out)

I don't know of the specific title you're looking for, but I've played games with the same rules under a variety of names. Sports Match as an arcade game, the Rivers game selection of the Kyodai shareware release, Four Rivers (http://puzzles.about.com/library/java/blfourrivers.htm) online.
Edited to add-- the game wouldn't have been "Dragon Punch," would it? It's an arcade game of which Sports Match is an American variant; DP uses mahjongg tiles rather than sports-themed graphics, and has a hentai "reward" for solving each level.

As far as I can remember how it went, the link game is pretty much the same. The original game had square (not rectangle) tiles and many more of them. The overall colour scheme was darker (black or dark background behind the tiles, and a visible timer (bar getting shorter or longer)
But I can play the above game for now as it's almost exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks :)

Ok I've discovered that it was called double trouble.
Here is a little picture of what it looked like. (http://x024.uploaderx.net/x/2135.gif)
There is a feeble 'older' (I say older because it calls itself 'classic') version knocking around...

But it isn't a patch on the game I played.
Does anyone know of it and know where I can play the game I played and not this crap version?
