Quite some time ago, I played a little puzzle game online. Hopefully you can point me to it: In the centre of the screen was a large ball/globe. Around the edges of the screen were around a dozen objects including a ladder, radar dish, cogs, a mountain, sun etc. There were no instructions and I won’t say in case someone else wants a go (if it’s found). Apparently there is a square version out now… Yours in anticipation ---

I found it after some Googling. It’s called [Grow](http://www.kiteretsu.jp/on/grow3/) and it was quite frustrating 🙂 My dog just came running in here to see what the music was that that site plays. ---

Objects must be placed in the correct order. Great little game. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Psst, you’re thinking of [GrowRPG](http://www.eyezmaze.com/grow/RPG/), which is similar, different. There’s also [Grow Cube](http://www.eyezmaze.com/grow/cube/index.html). ---

It’s either Flash or Java plug in. And not like any puzzle you’ve done before… Give it a go. The RPG version had me chuckling like a loon last night. ---

I played GrowCube for a while - it’s too cute for words. I’ll try the others too.
