in a saturated gaming world how do you decide what to play, and why? what is gaming? how do age and the different stages of life influence those choices? if a game attracts me it has 20 minutes to convince me, otherwise : deleted. an investigation into these thoughts by a group of people, different ages, stages in life, relationship to gaming, different hardware, different backgrounds even different languages.

Traal (iOS)
Traal is spooky. Basically you try to make it though the dungeon, but if your character "sees" a monster (with his little point-of-view flashlight) then he freaks out and runs in the opposite direction, usually into spikes and dies. I found it pretty darn hard. The best thing about this game is the sound. When your character spots a monster there's this terrible screech! It's so horrible. If you're into this kinda thing, play with headphones, you'll be freaked out every time. It just goes to show you that the monsters don't have to look scary to us to make them scary in the game. I did my best to avoid them just so I wouldn't have to hear that noise. Unfortunately, it was really hard, and it's not quite what I'm looking for in an iOS game.
It's much more fun with a keyboard. If you want to try it, just go here to play in your browser.
There are alot more games on Jonathan Whiting's page to check out.
