It's like rocket riot or something ;) :

Gunturret
Magical forest
Dark forest(auto)
Infection
Plague
Futurewinians

(The last three are my favorite. I wish there would be a pack that only contains them :D)

But if you did, who would pick up the crates?

It could be called:

Mined the crate

You have to avoid the crates (which can be difficult).

I guess if Cratemania happened a lot, that would actually be challenging...

I'd like to see a crate that just plain explodes when you capture it.

It would amuse me.

Hmmm. I'm thinking about creating a new powerup ideas thread.

Obviously, exploding crates would have to be included.

In addition to the exploding one, how about a crate that explodes like an assault bomb?

Then again that's a potential end-gamer too...

There should be a crate that simply kills all the Multiwinians who opened it. Just to add to the list of bad things that can happen.

Honestly, I think that we should just allow as much customization as people want. Literally allow them to set a probability for every single kind of box. Who cares if it can "break" the game, include some presets, but let players decide what they want to do, if you don't like it, don't play with them.

The game's designers, other players, everyone who wants to play Multiwinia instead of some other game.

The last thing I want to do is win just because I grabbed all the power ups. One armour and it becomes a mostly trivial task.
