The One That Got Away, by Leon Lin
7 of 7 people found the following review helpful:
Short and sweet, January 25, 2009

"The one that got away" is one of those small little gems which are often overlooked. It's neither long nor puzzle-heavy, instead emphazising the mood and atmosphere of a fishing trip to get away from it all. It's great on those - it's touching, funny, and even a tad creepy. On the downside, some implementation is awkward (though there is a nice in-game leaftlet which explains all the fishing commands to stupid cityfolk who don't know the next thing about fisihing, e.g. me)maybe in part due to the game's age.
None of it is really a show-stopper, but it breaks atmosphere and reminds you that you're not experiencing a story, but playing a game.
Bottom line: A nice, short diversion. Good story, some minor implementation problem. And ask Bob about everything indeed.

Doom Cat!!, by Eric Mayer

tick tick TICK TICK!, January 12, 2009

What's there to say, really?
A short, uproaringly funny game (if it fits your sense of humor.) Surreal, stupid, and (Spoiler - click to show) cruel to cats
If you have two minutes to burn, I'd recommend this. I laughed.
