I played Vision awhile ago when it came out. It’s really good. All of Neutral’s games are really good.

you should check out samorost
http://amanita-design.net/samorost-1/
it’s named for the czechoslovakian word for driftwood, and is one of the cutest i’ve seen.

Kelly – Thanks, Samorost is an old favorite of mine. Questionaut, in the list above, is another game from Amanita Design.

Yeah, I think it is just evil of you to post this list…I mean very nice of you. But I tried out pen ball and stayed up half the night. I mean, really. This is a long list. It will take me forever to get through them all!

i love it whenever you post about what game you’ve been playing. i found out about daymare town through you and ever since then i’ve been hooked on casual gaming. especially the point and clicks! have you tried out chainfactor as a fun time killer? (chainfactor.com)
10 megan // Apr 13, 2008 at 4:29 pm
Ashley – I find Chain Factor hopelessly addicting and have to stop myself from playing it again.

Sam and Max is life changing. You can download “Abe Lincoln Must Die” for free from the telltale games website. Don’t worry you aren’t killing Abe Lincoln the person, just the monument. And even then, you aren’t very sucessful!

I have to say the Princess Bride game looks pretty cool. I’m definitely downloading that…
