This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion.
Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

AstroPop Deluxe is Tetris, but with a new mechanic!

Unused Graphics

Originally, AstroPop Deluxe was protected by a basic name/serial protection.. but in later revisions (including the one currently downloadable on PopCap's site), this was changed, and is now a 60-minute trial of the fully registered version, where the actual game executable is ran by a 'wrapper' executable... which means that the dialog about unregistered versions that still exist in the later revisions end up unused.
