Confession #7

I´m a gaming nerd. I love computer games, but I try to stay away from them as I get totally hooked. And it´s not like I need more reasons to play with my new baby,  Lucy Queen of Narnia (Luce for short), than I already have. (I might as well hook her up intraveinously).

I´ve already posted about it way back when. My favourite (till now) has been Samorost, but now I have a new favourite from Amanita designs.

In Machinarium you get to "be" the cutest little robot. I played throught the demo last night, and I am already totally hooked.

And for those sceptics out there. This game is an award winning point and click classic, and a logical challenge. Just made fun in a special universe with a really sweet robot.

It´s out. Check it out.

All pictures are screenshots from the Machinarium demo here.

Samorost

The web is a vast expance of inspiration. Something I found loads of in the universe of Samorost. This is more a state of mind, rather than a game. And it ate me up. Whole.

I would love to live in this floating world of organic mechanics. The flash game is designed by Jakub Dvorsky while he was a design student. His company Amanita Design is also an ispiration. I played through both Samorost worlds in one sitting. (The pictures are from Wikipedia)

And I'm anticipating Machinarium. Due this Autumn.

And if you like Samarost you should try these:
