  1. Gals Panic

  Gals Panic was the favorite by far and not just because of the skin factor. This Qix knock-off is fun and just plain crazy. I still don't understand why the girl would turn into a monster sometimes and, truth be told, I don't really care. It was a great way to empty my pockets of spare change and there are worse things I could have done at 3 o'clock in the morning.
