I started playing "Kings Field: The Ancient City" last night!

I like how this game is as unappealing as it can be right from the start to try and maybe weed out the unworthy. I died within the first 45 seconds of gameplay because I stepped on some sort of trap 20 feet from the starting point. If you force yourself to accept the slowness of the controls and animations, and start to carefully poke around you really do get hooked. I only played for 1 hour last night, but I have been day dreaming about the game all morning. I have made the progress of initial leveling up and getting a sword etc., and suddenly it dawns on you how manageable the game could be. Just be calm and smart, like you would if you were actually on this adventure. See a well you can jump down? Well, don't jump down it because its a 20 foot fall and you'll break your legs and die - hope you saved, dummy.

The game is also bleak, bleak, bleak. Everyone you talk to is like, "This place is awful, and yer fucked if you hang around. Im dying." Grey skies, wet earth, slugs and plant creatures walking in circles. You must be a real saint to bother helping this hell hole.

I am loving Super Meat Boy, at the final level of the "The End" world and its been a real bastard.

Bought Deathsmiles and played that for the first time, but was way too tired to actually have any idea what was going other than that I was infact moving things on screen.

This entire week anytime I have wanted to play a games I have gone to foddy.net, I enjoy all of those games immensly. I really think I need to start digging into old school sports games from the 8 bit/16 bit era after playing these.
