Freeware Game Pick: A to B Basset (Adam Lobacz)
A to B Basset is an arcade game created by Adam Lobacz for a friendly TDC competition, where players get to drag a Basset Hound around the rooms of an old house in an attempt to reunite the puppy with its favorite red ball.
A magic crate will only appear once you've collected all ice creams in each area, while the exit is unlocked by placing the crate at the location marked by a red arrow.
There are only six stages to play in total.

Though this looks and sounds interesting I'm having a problem in that my Anti-virus kills the file before I get a chance to open it. Am I the only one with this problem?

You can grab the game from MediaFire, which scans a file for viruses before allowing users to download it.

AVG says this is infected

Thank you very much Tim. I'm guessing my browser either grabs for cache, or AVG is being overzealous again

The latest update for AVG detects a virus for all Klik and MMF games actually.

Thanks for that heads up. I really ought to find something better. At least it's not as bad as last November when an update caused it to delete important and clean Windows DLL files.

I usually scan, test and play all games from start to end, although there is still the chance that something might slip by. Do let me know if anything posted here seems odd or fishy.

I tried it out and didn't notice anything fishy. I didn't really care for the game though.

In the competition everyone had to make a game within 1 week with the rule being it had to be small enough but addicting at the same time. We received around 28 submissions and they can all be found here:

There are some really good mini-games in there, have a look.

No love for this wonderful title? I found it amazing, although I couldn't get past the 5th level, even after ten tries or so.
