It looks like people are in the mood for Snood. It's a computer game developed by Guilford College professor Dave Dobson, and he's drummed up a global following. The marine geology teacher created Snood almost five years ago while he was a graduate student at the University of Michigan. Since then, thousands of computer users worldwide have fallen for Dobson's puzzle game, which features colorful, cartoon-like Snood characters with names like Numbskull and Zod. The object of the game is to free trapped Snoods by launching other Snoods at them from the bottom of the screen.
Some players compare the game to Tetris, but one Connecticut player says it's faster.
The game's name comes from the name of a fantasy football team run by a friend of Dobson's. All rights reserved.
