If you read Bill Harris's blog: http://dubiousquality.blogspot.com/ he raved about this game, so I decided to play the free hour.

One hour later, I bought it ($20).

I didn't see anything on here about this game, but is it addicting!!

Toddzilla · 01-18-2008, 10:32 AM

How do you play? I see no instructions on the site, and the video has no info either...

The demo walks you through everything you need to know and as it teaches you, the help gradually goes away.

MizzouRah · 01-18-2008, 11:25 AM

VERY easy to pickup and learn...

Toddzilla · 01-18-2008, 12:00 PM

I'm not worried about that - I'm just interested to know how the game is played to know if I want to d/l it or not.

So I'll ask again, how do you play?

It's so easy you don't even have to know how to play. Just download it!

Toddzilla · 01-18-2008, 12:16 PM

Thank you, Daivd Winter.

rkmsuf · 01-18-2008, 12:18 PM

Dnowlaod It!

I'd elaborate but my NDA prohibits that.

Pumpy Tudors · 01-18-2008, 12:42 PM

I bought it through bigfishgames.com. I have a subscription on that site, so I was able to buy it for only $6.95. I just finished the game about a week ago. It really is a lot of fun. I'm not sure if I'll ever go back to it, but for the small price I paid, I definitely got my money's worth. At $20, it's still a pretty good deal, I would think. It's a lot of fun.

Geesh!

Pumpy Tudors · 01-18-2008, 12:47 PM

man i just press the fuckin buttons, i don't know

mauchow · 01-18-2008, 01:49 PM

Its basically the solitaire game where you have cards out on the open and you have a stack of cards in your hand. Flip that card and if you can click a card out in the open that is one card away from your hand then click it. Point is to get a lot of runs. If you've got a 9, find an 8 or 10..

Its much like Pyramids, with a twist.

rkmsuf · 01-18-2008, 01:55 PM

LOL, I love that solitare was just described.

I would guess the twist is the point of interest. Just a guess though.

Pumpy Tudors · 01-18-2008, 01:59 PM

man just press the button until tiger woods pops up and then play the special lynch card. it's like an easter egg or some shit and you win immediately.

rkmsuf · 01-18-2008, 02:04 PM

I got the Bagger Vance power up once. All the white guys got lynched. Man that was fun.

Pumpy Tudors · 01-18-2008, 02:06 PM

DO NOT PLAY THE LYNCH CARD IF WILL SMITH COMES UP ON THE SCREEN. IT IS A TRAP.

DO PLAY THE DAVID LYNCH CARD IF KYLE MACLACHLAN COMES UP.

NoMyths · 01-18-2008, 02:25 PM

There's a coupon code out there (or two) that'll give you 40% off the purchase, making it $11.99. Great price for a fun little game with more depth than you'd expect.

JPhillips · 01-18-2008, 02:27 PM

Does this have MP?

MizzouRah · 01-18-2008, 02:53 PM

I can't stop, it's like I was put on this earth to finish this game in one sitting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Flasch186 · 01-18-2008, 03:03 PM

Pumpy Tudors · 01-18-2008, 03:42 PM

if you have bitches like i do, you can just punch them in the face and eventually one of them will give up the $20 and you can buy the shit

Passacaglia · 01-18-2008, 03:52 PM

If you use both coupon codes, does that give you 80% off?

if you use both coupon codes and don't come out ahead, use four coupon codes and get 160% off. if that doesn't work, use eight coupon codes. if you still don't have any money, maybe using coupons isn't the game for you.

The more you play it, the more you appreciate something that seems so simple, yet provides hours of fun.

I can name 10 games right off the bat that cost double and triple this game, yet provide ZERO enjoyment.

Flasch186 · 01-18-2008, 06:22 PM

WWMAG

Flasch186 · 01-18-2008, 06:33 PM

i guess in this genre I'd prefer "Soccer cards".

Somewhere near the CARNIVAL at which lots of CARNIVAL music is played and CARNIVAL workers -- some with tiny little CARNIVAL worker hands -- will administer CARNIVAL rides and ensure you have a good time at the CARNIVAL.

Flasch186 · 01-18-2008, 07:05 PM

I don't mean to threadjack, what with this being Pumpy Day and all, but I second the recommendation. Fairway Solitaire is worth the purchase - use code WWMAG for $6 off - unless you want to double. YMMV,

st.cronin · 01-19-2008, 01:59 PM

Dang, how did I miss this beautiful thread yesterday.

Fidatelo · 01-19-2008, 04:20 PM

I picked up Fairway Solitaire last night... great game! I used the WWMAG code and it is well worth the $14.

MikeVic · 01-21-2008, 09:09 AM

Good thread that needs bumping.

MizzouRah · 01-21-2008, 09:10 AM

Tell my wife it's my turn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pumpy Tudors · 01-21-2008, 09:14 AM

So, is the commentator for this game named "Ben Parmer" or "Ben Parma"? Fucking Australians.

Honolulu Blue · 01-21-2008, 12:05 PM

Man, you guys are late to the party. I've had it for over 6 weeks. It's a very good game - one of the rare games that has a good "campaign" mode that's worth playing after the campaign is over.
