Install Zaz (Zuma Like Game For Linux And Windows) 0.8.0 In Ubuntu

Zaz is a multi-platform (Windows and Linux) arcade action puzzle game where the objective is to get rid of all incoming balls by rearranging their order.

The idea of the game is loosely based on games like Luxor, Zuma and Puzzle Bobble.

Zaz 0.8.0 was released a few days ago, the new version extending the number of levels to 20, added language option in options menu and some other small improvements.

Here is a video with level 20 of Zaz 0.8.0:

The version in Ubuntu is still 0.2.9 in both Lucid and Maverick, so we've uploaded the latest Zaz 0.8.0 in the WebUpd8 PPA, so there are many new levels and features compared to the version in the Ubuntu official repositories.

Install Zaz 0.8.0 in Ubuntu Karmic, Lucid and Maverick

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install zaz

If you don't want to add the WebUpd8 PPA, you can also manually download the .deb files.

Zaz is not a game for passionate gamers but for some ocasional fun. It is actually one of the few games I play when I have some free time and what I can tell you is: be careful, it's very addictive! If you start playing it at work and you get fired for it, don't blame it on me, ok? =)
