Rapid Reflex Game Review

Michio Kaku said, "The human brain has 100 billion neurons, each neuron connected to 10 thousand other neurons. Sitting on your shoulders is the most complicated object in the known universe." I think a close second is the United States federal tax code. Seriously, it's a mess. However, if given enough time and study, even the most complex can become simplistic. Ironically, the most simplistic can become exceedingly complex if no time is allowed for the human brain to think it through. In this game, you'll be asked to do something very simple very quickly. Expect a challenge.

Arena Gladiators Game Review

You are the owner and trainer of gladiators. You have fought in the arena yourself, killed and survived. You were awarded your freedom and your future.

Fish to Fish Game Review

Milton Berle said, "If evolution really works, how come mothers only have two hands?" And why do I have no hair on my head, for that matter? Regardless of your personal opinion on evolution, which some see as a theory and some as a scientific fact, two thing are for certain. Change happens and we must change to adapt. We adapt to overcome and to move forward. In this game, you will transform one fish into another, but be fast! Take too long and you'll find that change oftentimes rolls over those who cannot adapt quickly.

EquiLogic Game Review

Albert Einstein said, "Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater." Math is hard, and don't try telling me it isn't. It's also wonderful. Thanks to math and mathematicians, we are able to explore our world, our galaxy, and define things we cannot even see. And it all starts with "1 + 1". In this Puzzle game, logical thinking and simple math is all that's required, but that doesn't mean it's an easy challenge.

In Review: Father Geek’s Monthly Newsletter (May 2014)

Another month has slipped by like a ninja in the night...or a ship...or a ship full of ninjas. It's May and that means Spring in Southern Minnesota is "kind of" here. Last year, we had one bugger of a snowstorm in May that took down trees and had many people questioning their decision to live in the upper Midwest. Throwing caution to the wind, as it were, everyone in Minnesota is now wearing shorts. Temperature be damned...

AnimaLogic Game Review

Your animal park has been in a drought for over 8 months. When the rain clouds appeared on the horizon, even the animals looked hopeful. But when the steady downpour kept getting harder and harder, hopes changed into fears. The river is rising and you have been sent out into the park to rescue the animals. The majority of animals have already been saved, but a few remain. The lions, camels, giraffes, and hippos have been gathered together, but there is only a small bridge to safety that is dangerously close to being swept downstream by the flooded river. You must cross the animals quickly and in an orderly fashion before they stampede. Your mother told you there would be days like this...
