Editorial Reviews

Baf's Guide


Ideologically, this is a remake of Rape, Pillage, Galore, an entry in the IF-Competition 2003, yet the original has been stripped to the bare essential. This, combined with the fact it's a repeated joke, makes it no fun at all.

A mockery of the state of video games in 2005, April 17, 2016

This is a joke game. It has a long spiel about using science to make the most enjoyable game possible.

Then you make (Spoiler - click to show)two choices and end the game. This makes the game very short..

This sort of game, using short CYOA to mock game culture, came into vogue a decade later with authors like Soda51.

Brilliant trolling games by Not Troll
Some games are just that bad, some are so bad it's good, and a few are obviously trolling. Yet, are there games that troll so much that they start to be brilliant? Or even those that seems to be trolling that turn out to be brilliant...

Games with misleading titles by Cendare
I was thinking about "Nothing But Mazes" and how it, in fact, contains things that aren't mazes. What other games have titles that don't quite reflect what's inside?
