Inside Mac Games has posted a review of the remake of the classic puzzler Pipe Mania from Virtual Programming. Like the original, place and rotate pipes to get the liquid flowing from one end to another. This update to the game adds other themes, giving the player the chance to lay track for a traveling train, for example. Here's and excerpt from the review:

The first and largest addition to the core Pipe Mania mechanics is the campaign mode. Each zone you explore in the quest for connecting the pipes of the world adds a special condition you have to deal with and tends to require some pre-planning to properly defeat. The largest example of this is the train zone. Your train has a start and an end, so it's possible to rearrange the track in a way that creates an infinite loop that you can then use to rack up tremendous amounts of score. This is required in order to beat a few of the levels and especially to get a gold star for all the levels of zone, so you'll have to learn fast.
