I would also put Congo in the "friendly" category when it comes to gameplay. I don't think about Congo in terms of game progress, difficult gameplay, or wizard modes. Other games offer that. Congo is just so much fun. I chase my high score and diamond counts. It is a great game for guests. That being said the second I think to myself the game is too easy I brick a shot and power drain. Its theme, layout, and charms won me over

I have returned to this thread to publicly apologize to my Congo. I called it easy here the other day, and it must have heard me because it just handed me my ass for about an hour. Every shot to the saucers was a bounce out, every ball exited the hippo pops SDTM, there was a magnet in the right outlane. It has never treated me so poorly. Please forgive me Congo! You are good enough, you're smart enough, and doggone it, you're hard enough to occasionally kick my talentless butt.
