Pinch Me

THIS IS THE LIFE!!! What other programs require you to play games in order to pass?  I’ll wait…  So that was a little misleading.  We have been playing games to break them down to figure out what mechanics, dynamics and aesthetics were used to make them fun.  After breaking down all of the games that were played, it became very clear that there are many many many ways to make a fun game.  For example, apparently, competing for the most depressing story in Lovecraft land(Cthulu Gloom) is fun…twisted, but fun. 

If you think that’s weird, trading natural resources to build roads and cities can also be fun(Settlers of Catan).

  I know…I was surprised, too.  Someone, perhaps myself, should make a game where the person who has the best bowel movements win the game.(NO CRAP!)
