Has anyone played the game Zuma’s Revenge? I found it on MSN games once. I think it’s pretty awesome. My fiance, however, does not. I hope you all comment and agree that the game is, in fact, awesome.

I’m not sure a spammer would put so much effort into a profile.

I remember playing “[Montezuma’s Revenge](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montezuma%27s_Revenge_%28video_game%29)” on Atari.

I’m definitely not going to check this out. When the original Zuma was in its heyday, it cost my office countless hours of productivity. Nobody could get any work done while anyone was playing “the froggy game”.

This is a giant time waster! That’s what’s so good about it!

I’m not a spammer! I just really like this game and felt that “The Game Room” would be an appropriate place to discuss it!!!

_\<checks\>_ She’s also posted normally\* in several other threads; not really spammer behavior.

- “Normally” as in making comments relevant to the thread and not just mentioning Zuma’s Revenge everywhere

I saw a July registration date and a short post promoting something and encouraging people to write positive comments, and jumped to conclusions. Apols.
