Quinn is an implementation of a popular falling-blocks game which, according to its owner, must not be named here. Written specifically for Mac OS X, Quinn features a neat user interface, perfectly integrated with Aqua, and a smooth look and feel for best user enjoyment.

The goal was not to reinvent falling-blocks games with yet another modification of the rules, but to preserve the simplicity of the original idea.

Still there’s everything you might expect in Quinn—including a two-player mode, network play with Bonjour support, online server and highscore lists, and five different multiplayer rules.
