"The unexpected becomes expected."
Interactive Fiction, Dice Games, Board Games, Cheapass Games (c) and even the occasional Videogame.
A growing hobby of mine is dabble in the old Text Based Adventure format (now better known as Interactive Fiction). These are those old games that describe a room to you, and you type in commands, and you go back and forth and solve "puzzles", most of which are having the right item at the right time. They are most decidely not videogames, so I made a new section here.
Part of this section will to give my own tips and tricks. And part will be to talk about the games I have beaten.
First off, the tips:
THE GAMES
Brian Howarth's Mysterious Adventures (Scott Adams)
Short/er/ish IF reviews (linked to, individually, above).
Cheapass Games are always good for a cheap, quirky night. How much better when you see how much stuff they offer for free! I will admit that most of their free games are less fun their others, but I should point out Huzzah! and Fight! as being good games.
