Hi al i really like to play mono and lock on. I really to play them all the time because you can shoot al sorts of colour
balls. And on lock on you can be a challeng sometimes. :roll:

I like Lock on,but it`s not as good as mono.Mono is better because it has a lot more colour and more options to click on or see more.On Lock On there isn`t much to do,the only keys you use G,H,F and arrow keys.

3. brock - December 6, 2006

Hi Al. I very like game mono.i like mono buicase it have lots of colours, good music and in this game you need to get big number.

5. josh - December 6, 2006

out of mono and lockon i like mono more because it is easyer to play it has more colure and when you finish you see if you get on the leader bord.I dont really like lockon that much because you can run out of bullets and it does’nt have very much culoure and in mono you can chose what level you want like easy,medium,hard.

6. Chris - December 6, 2006

Hi al its chris a good game in my opinion is if its easy to use the controls big one hi scores big one the music i like these games because you have to shoot things in mono you must shoot the blobs in lockon you have to shoot enemies my fav is mono but lock on is still fun.

Lock on and mono are both very good games. But i prefere mono just becouse i have played it more times. If i was trying a new game i would choose lock on. Mono is a good game but lock on would be a better starter. Cheers B.B :MrGreen:

9. Patrick - December 6, 2006

Hi Al i have a favorite out of Lock On and Mono it is Lock on.But the thing i like about Lock On and Mono is they have very good graphics,sound and how you play it.It is a simple game when you get to know the game i started today and i was quiet confused but now i am use to it i know what to do.Now im use to lock on i seem to like Lock On.

10. drae - December 6, 2006

I think that Mono is not that different from lock on.
I would pre fer Mono because of the colurs and the colurs in Mono
could help with learnig.Lock on is cool be cause of the weaepns.
Lock on and Mono have differnt weapns.On Mono you shoot blobs of colur and in lock on you shoot rokets.And in Mono and lockon ilike the weaepns.

11. connor - December 6, 2006

I think that lock on is better.Me and brayden got 53,566.We have the higth score people think that we are bad.Mono is good but not better then lock on I think lock on becouse you get to go everywere.

12. caitlin - December 6, 2006

I like lock on and mono the same but I think I like mono abit better 1st reason is that I really like the colour because it is bright when you put colour on it and the 2nd reason about mono is if you put it on hard for me it always gives me a challenge and the 3rd reason that I like mono abit better than lock on is the music that there playing behind it I might just like mono better because I have not played lock on alot so I will find out when I play it more! one thing I found out that I like about lock on is that you can fight back from the little bomb things because on mono you just have to runaway! I do not really like the music on lock on because I think it is just abit too loud and maybe if the music was not there and you could just here the bomb shooting. 1 or the other!!!

13. sarah - December 6, 2006

14. cameron - December 6, 2006

I really like mono but I like lockon more because you play it with the keyboard and its got homing missiles whonce me and my friend got the highest score :grin: I like playing it with friends I think its more of a challange :mrgreen:

15. claire - December 6, 2006

I like mono the best it has got more colour, you can change from black to white, the sounds & music are cool, its a much better challenge than lock on & you do sound effects, change the level, you can go back to your previous game & go to see the highscores, you can change the bullets & get forcefelds, later in the game it stats to shoot at you

16. nika - December 6, 2006

Hi,
I like mono because it had mor colours.And with colours is very interesting. And help with your learning.But I don’t like music. And I like that in mono black and white scream.

17. nat - December 6, 2006

Mono and lock on are the same game in meny ways and different ways. Mono is a game that you use the mouse lock on you use the keys. mono you collect stars and meny other shapes lock on you just collect flashing circles. So the games are a lot the same in meny ways more then I can say.but in the end I like lock on the most becease it is a bit more modern.

18. coreyf - December 6, 2006

Hi al :mrgreen: Mr green is the green ball in mono I like mono more than lock on they are both fun because mono has better gaphics than lock on but lock on is fun

Cheres corey :mrgreen:

19. Roisin - December 6, 2006

I like mono best because of the colour, how it changes colour from black to white if you start on black if you start on white it turns black,I like how you change the bullets I like how the colour splats on the colour you start with I like the music and it has a aim of the game, you can get forcefeilds & how they shoot at you.Lock on is good aswell because you get new waves and you can see the score you have got, things get in your way, it is a good challenge.

26. Tony - December 6, 2006

l think mono is the coolest and my favorrite

27. Kate Farrell - December 7, 2006

I’ve never seen mono before. Thanks for linking to it! It was a very fun game. I loved playing it. I only managed 47% on easy though. It was fun to be painting the screen and not just shooting things. It was interesting that you had to change how you played when you were shooting in different ways. I liked it best when you could shoot all around, but I didn’t like the arc one as blobs could get at you from the sides.
