Oddly compelling for being so simple, that is. Only one decision involved.
Found a neat flash game recommended over at the Nodwick home page. It kind of simlar to the game of Life.

No reflexes, no enemies. Basically, the only object is to make a chain reaction that goes for as long as possible. My record so far is 2496.
And Leaper wins by…one minute.
1124 on my second try. 
1200… and rising…
…wow… I’m good…
1769 after several double-digit attempts . . .
I got 2049 on about my fifth try. It just kept on going and going…
Pretty cool…right now I’m at 896
After trying desperately to beat Cunctator score, I’m afraid I must end with a final score of 1564. 
I’m not sure what happened. But the last twenty or so times, I just didn’t seem to be able to reach a climatic explosion. It shook a little bit, and seemed ready to blow, but then it just fizzled. :o
Damn you, Leaper. Damn you.
At least I’ve got a better high score. Beat 2496!
1,307 baby!
Oh, the OP beat me
All that work to get everything facing in the same direction and it only nets me about 1700, oh well, I should have seen that coming.
But I did get 1957

Leaper and Sublight, your threads have been merged.

Finally fizzled at 1915. I should be getting out to work. Damn you all! 
Wow, it feels like trying to start the evolution of life. Over and over and over…
1489 on my second go.
Haven’t made it past 600 since.
Okay, first try gained me all of one point.
Second shot: 2725!
Elation still tempered by utter humiliation of first attempt.
It’s also kinda fun to get 'em all lined up and then play around making patterns of waves moving across the board . . .
