I've seen a lot of reviews of this game which basically say "If you like Penny Arcade, you'll like this game." I'm going to disagree with that statement. If you like Penny Arcade, and you like certain aspects of Japanese-style role-playing games, you'll like this game.
Ever been away from the internet for several days or even weeks? I hate it. I feel out of touch. There's so much stuff that I keep up with on a daily basis. The one good thing about ending such an extended stint "on the wagon" is when I go to catch up on one of my favorite online comics, Penny Arcade, and find that there are several strips on which I can gorge myself all at once. That is what playing On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness feels like to me.

Welcome to weird. I can't say I have ever played a game quite like Samorost 2 before — both in form and style. Unique games are something I love to play, no matter the genre. I just love to observe and explore creativity; Samorost is nowhere close to generic.
Weewar is a game that bored office workers have been waiting for. Strategy on a minute scale in the style of Advance Wars. The good news is that there is no client. Weewar is a game played in your browser. It's also turn-based, so you can actually get work done between the 30 seconds you spend on your turn, and to top it all off ... it's in beta and FREE TO PLAY!
