Pictureka! - (USA)
My pick for Family Game of the Year. One of my favorite things about family time is playing games together. I love it. I love to have that relaxed atmosphere, with a hint of competition. I love the laughter and the lessons in sportsmanship. You learn a lot about people when you play a games with them. And it brings everyone to neutral territory, as teammates, rather than parent and child, or siblings. We play lots of games. In my house in Utah I actually had a huge walk-in closet just for my gam

Playing with Yourself: NXE Avatars - (USA)
When I first heard that the New Xbox Experience would be implementing an avatar system, I was a bit nonplussed. “I already have a Mii,” thought I. Now, just one week into the NXE, I must admit that I have considerably warmed to my avatar, spending maybe a little too much time selecting just the right nose and getting just the right angle for my avatar thumbnail. Happily, it would appear that I am not alone in my avatar fixation. Enough people have been spending quality time with their avatars t

Goodbye AS2… - (USA)
If you noticed, my last post about AS2 coding is New tile based platform engine - part 11 - slopes part b, almost a month ago. I decided to quit talking about AS2 because I am not using it anymore, excluding a couple of games I am about to complete. I am not that happy I had to learn a language I won't use anymore, but this happened a lot of times in my life... from Commodore Basic to AS2, including AMOS, Pascal and some more. When a programmer quits a language, it's not a big problem, but

A Little Post-Mortem - (USA)
Well, as I’ve been working on it throughout the week, I’ve been putting a lot more effort into it, and it’s been going way past the original 48hr game concept, hehe. As such, I thought I’d post up a post-mortem on what went wrong in the 48 hours, and what went right. The Good. The theme was great. I love sandbox style games, be it sandbox in a “giant world to do as you please” sense, or even in a “here’s a puzzle, figure it out as you like” sense - as Little Quirks was to be. So that got th

Mix It Up Tuesday - (USA)
By Karen Maggie On November 1st, I was privileged to be the Assistant Co-Chair of one of the largest Arts & Crafts shows in the Southeast. Over 240 vendors displayed their handmade arts and craft items and over 3000 shoppers attended on the day of the event. In the wee morning hours before the show opened, I quickly took a walk around the show to get a sneak peek at some of the vendor wares. One of the things that caught my eye was a booth selling altered game-boards. Although these ga

Dwarven Forge Hammers Out the Boredom of Plain-Jane RPG Battlemaps - (USA)
If you head out to your Friendly Local Game Store and observe the tabletop gamer in his or her natural habitat, you'll see that every gaming table is different. Some gamemasters are hunkered behind laptops, others are peeking over their screens. At one table, the clatter of dice is constant, while at the next, it's all about roleplay and the dice still haven't left their pouches. We all have our own styles when it comes to playing our favorite games. When I was younger, I preferred theater-o

PopCap's Bookworm [ App Store ] is on sale this week for 99˘. If you're unfamiliar with the game, here is a brief overview from our review : Bookworm uses the same formula of most word games, offering a field of random tiles from A to Z, (with 'Qu' combined in to one tile) that players must search through to find words. The tiles are large enough that accurately tapping them with your finger isn’t an issue and you can then either select the rest of your word by tapping adjacent tiles or

REVIEW: Bookworm Adventures Vol. 2 (PC) - (USA)
One of the best word puzzle franchises is back, as Bookworm Adventures Vol. 2 has been released, the third game in the franchise. The original Bookworm introduced us to Lex, the letter-hungry titular character who chomped and burped letter tiles as people spelled out long words a la Boggle . Lex then starred in his own lite roleplaying game as he wandered the lands fighting enemies with words. He’s back again, and this time facing off against his most dangerous foe yet: his evil twin EviLex
