Hei kinaki mo koutou nga mea tere! :)

If you have reached this stage, KA PAI!!! :D

Here is a brain game that you might enjoy. WARNING! DO HIT the screen.

Here is another if you just want to make money without needing brains.

Or if you are very fast (and if you have already played the first two games, then I HOPE that it was because the test was FAR TOO easy ;) and not that you couldn't be bothered :P), then try here for some stimulation....

Tena rawa atu.
