I got gnome nibbles from the software center and the tooltips are gone. alt key does not help. I tried use the premium support form but for the second time i get no reply! (would also like to know WHY?). Anyway the screenshot shows the program... and I obviously can't go very far :(

Hi, I don't know if Nibbles will work properly on Zorin 11 properly - remember it is a development release and it is not a project from the Zorin stable - third party applications authors need to be notified but if you do, be sure to quote 'Ubuntu 15.10' or you might get a perfunctory reply - try the Zorin forum! ;) :D

As you appear to like retro gaming try this one:

gav (GPL arcade volleyball) - you will have to launch it from the terminal but it is a great game with different backgrounds to choose from:

http://gav.sourceforge.net/

;) :D

i tried it with GNOME DE on the zorin and it still goofs. However... I thought zorin was more like a GUI on top of Ubuntu yet it works for me on the latest Ubuntu... maybe you can educate me on zorin's position in the formula ;) :D
