So I went and paused the game this morning on the first level.  Where the white and grey balls drop down...while it was paused the balls kept dropping I could hear them, and I could hear when I was losing points...so what is the sense in pausing if the game just keeps on running?...just my thoughts...what do you all think?...

Hi all - sorry to hear about this problem.  Can you tell me - does this happen in all play modes?  And, on what difficulty level you were playing when you could not pause?  Thanks for your help!

Still happening to me.

I am x3 mode of the first level and I paused to respond to an MSN IM and they were still dropping. I lost my score and ended up with 50 points. GRRR!!

Also tried second level x3 and paused after I messed up...played the sheet music as well while paused so had to replay again.

So yeah, The hardest level still have problems with pause, by the looks of it with all scenarios, so trusting you will fix it when you find it. Keep up the great work!

I was playing in normal mode (other modes to fast for me i'm no good at it) I think it's all of them i'm not sure. I paused the reflexes one but still played.

Thanks Jenny! I knew posting this in Site Feedback will get your attention.

Born, thanks for the info - I was able to replicate the problem myself when playing in Brain Buster mode.  So sorry this is happening guys! 

I will notify the programmer, and hopefully this issue will be fixed come Monday.  Once I get confirmation from the programmer that the problem has been fixed, I will update here.  Thanks so much for your patience in the meantime - I know it's frustrating.

When I was playing this game, I had to go feed the kids. Then I paused the game for about 5 minutes and when I came back I got an F on reflexes. I haven't missed one. Could any Grab.com Staff members fix this problem. It's happening to others too.

Yeah, the point is to sort of 'save' the game if, for example, you need to go to the bathroom.

Strange, my game acctually paused before, hmmm...

YEP, pausing is worthless.  Don't try it, it doesn't work the game will continue to run.

Yeah, read the previous posts first.  The point was that even after hitting pause, the game still ran.

Hi everyone - finally some GOOD news!  A new (and hopefully bug-free) version of Brain Buster has been uploaded to Grab, and the pause button is now working! 

Thank you everyone for your patience - we apologize for the delay!  Now run out there and bust those brains!

I just have one question. Is the 'probability' time limited too? I thought it was not, as there is no time counting or 'pause' button, but several times, when I had to minimize the game window (..OK, I DID play at work ).. then, when I went back to the game, it was over. Did anybody had same problem?
