The game's so addictive that I've removed it from my phone twice to force a break (that's got the side benefit of resetting my high score and my average).

I've found Harbour Master to be an effective remedy... It's not that different, but it gives you five new high scores to continously beat. I've not touched Flight Control since I bought it!

But, unlike your description of Flight Control, Word Solitaire is both addictive and fun. It can be a fast finger game to beat the clock, or slow and steady to minimize the number of moves. http://www.appversity.com/games/word-solitaire-review/ Right now, I’m addicted to Word Solitaire.

But as for you... I think it's time for "Clear All Scores". Go play "Toobz" or "Paper Toss" for a while. So I guess my score of 49 ain’t exactly the shizz I thought it was, eh?

I can get to the 450+ zone but just can't reach 500. This is, of course, on the easy setting. Maybe we should start an addicting iPhone app support group.
