But that means you'll never play my game! (If I ever make one.)
Gleaming the Verb: How do you make Portal even more fun? Turn it into a series of word puzzles. Rating: 2.
Interface: A kid gets turned into a robot ... and wants to be human again?! That's not normal. Rating: 5.
The Hangover: How did Interface wake up next to this game?! Rating: 1.
Yon Astounding Castle! of some sort: The entire game is written in ye olde english. Imagine it being read aloud in a Scottish accent to double the good, cheap laughs. Rating: 7.
Resonance: Washed-up private eye solves riddles to unconver the world's most clichéd conspiracy. The story could have been a bit more interesting had it not tipped its hand so early. Rating: 4.
The Ascot: If some weirdo walks up to you and offers you an ascot, just say no and move on. I mean in this game, not in real life. Rating: 3.
The Believable Adventures of an Invisible Man: Interesting look at how an invisible person would have a harder time hiding than a normal person. The puzzles and environment are messed up, though. Rating: 5.
zork, buried chaos: Want some reinterpretation of an Infocom classic? Course you don't! Rating: 2.
Condemned: The author has a good horror story in mind, but should ask Santa for a copy of Strunk & White this Christmas. Rating: 7.
Snowquest: Last year's second place winner will probably win something again. Good, challenging puzzles, tight writing. Rating: 7.
Grounded in Space: If your kid misbehaves, don't send him off to an asteroid mining colony as punishment! Make him play this game instead. Rating: 2.
Byzantine Perspective: You're a cat burglar trying to steal a chalice from a museum, but the museum is apparently in the twilight zone. I don't get it. Rating: 5.
The Grand Quest: You're on a math and riddle-filled quest to find a goblet. You can get goblets much more easily in the Atari 2600 game
Dragonfire, and they're not even the best treasures in that game. Rating: 3.
Broken Legs: You've screwed up your singing audition, so you have to screw up all the other girls' auditions. A bit too wordy and way too hard, but I like the cattiness! Rating: 6.
Rover's Day Out: You're in a VR simulation of domestic and doggy life, but it's really about space travel, artificial intelligence, and a pink interdimensional pillow. An interesting headache. Rating: 6.
Beta Tester: More VR BS. Rating: 4.
The Duel in the Snow: Simple story about a pistol duel in Russia. I don't think it takes place "in Soviet Russia..." Sorry. Rating: 5.
Eruption: You wake up stranded on an island, and someone has actually left you a note saying that the volcano is going to blow. Not as cool as a Jimmy Buffet song. Rating: 5.
Star Hunter: Long 300-point game in which you walk around looking for treasures. No one will ever finish it. Rating: 3.
