With my copy of 3 in Three came a coupon for a free copy of one of the following games: Defender of the Crown, King of Chicago, S.D.I. Since I know nothing about any of these games, I don't know which would be most appealing to me or to my kids (ages from5 to 16). Any descriptions or suggestions about type of game, quality, etc, would be greatly appreciated. I'm about half thru with 3 in Three, and it is as much fun as Cliff Johnson's previous two games, though I enjoy the word puzzles much more than the juinior rubik's-cube topographies, which must access a different, and less developed area of my cortex. As aside: when I ordered 3 in Three from MacConnection, after reading about it here on the net, I was told it was out of stock but backordered. [groan]. It arrived in 2 days, rather than their usual one. This has been an unsolicited testimonial.

When I phoned in my order for 3 in Three last Saturday (Dec 29), I was told it was in stock and would be shipped their next business day, Wednesday (Jan 2), and arrive on Thursday. This seemed reasonable. Nevertheless, it did arrive Wednesday (today), a day early! I guess some workaholic slipped into the warehouse on New Year's Eve or Day and pulled a few orders. I'd like to thank that masked man.... Jon Alan Conrad
