Puzz Loop is the game that "inspired" Zuma.

How do you do this exactly? I found no dipswitch and I can't seem to get the game into service mode (pressing F2 does nothing). I'd love to try this with my spinner, but never figured it out.

dip switches in the tab menu, turn on service mode.
Puzz Loop is the game that gets by far the most attention of anything on my box. I have two spinners and this game is absolute greatness.
Also, it is the only game my fiancee actually gets into. She has the high score of almost 125,000 in Panic Mode and she kicks ---my bottom--- quite frequently in versus. Now she actually plays the box on her own, whereas before she seemed ready to chuck it into the garbage.
Needless to say, I am in awe. BTW, what is Puzz Loop 2? I'm running .87 version of our favorite emu. Is this one of the new supported games? No idea what Zuma is, either, I probably should just search. Sooooo lazy on Spring Break. :)
Cheers,

It was only one of the most popular "casual games" for PC (almost as popular as Bejeweled)

Sorry to be dull here, but what do you do after setting service mode to yes? I tried that already and still nothing, even after resetting the game.
RayB:
Some games, service mode comes up as soon as you set the switch. Others, you must then hit Reset (F3)

Do you mean that you aren't going into service mode or that you can't find the option to change the control method to spinner?
Also, some games you have to reset to get into service mode and some games you have to just tab out of the config and they will go into it, if I remember correctly.
I'm sure I can check very quickly how exactly Puzz Loop works if you're still having problems.
