Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

SpaceJourneySS00 Okay so maybe it’s not tic-tac-toe, and maybe it’s not strictly in a row, but it is at least three or more.  Yes I’m talking about the dreaded Match-3 games!  Yes this is my first Match-3 review.  And also yes I may review more.  Why are they dreaded?  Well technically they’re not.  It’s just there’s a lot of them.  And people are making a lot of money off of them.

Dyson – I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree.

Friday, March 6th, 2009

Well I don’t know much about trees, or poems about them.  But there is a game written about a kind of tree called a Dyson tree.  Just what is a Dyson tree you ask?  Let’s call on our friend Wikipedia for an answer, shall we?  According to Wikipedia, “A Dyson tree is a hypothetical genetically-engineered plant, (perhaps resembling a tree) capable of growing in a comet, suggested by the physicist Freeman Dyson.”  Okay what does this have to do with games?  Well our next game is called, you guessed it, Dyson!

Wagons HO! – It’s time to saddle up, get provisions, and head west!

Thursday, February 19th, 2009

“Wagons HO!” is a game were you can travel to the west in 10 minutes or less.  It’s actually a game I had done the programming on (although the design was not mine).  At first I was a bit wary or reviewing this considering I had worked on it, so I might be a bit biased.  But I decided to let you know that I worked on it and not try to misrepresent myself.
