As a civilization grows, so too must it change. Change comes from within as well as without. As your civilization's leader, you direct its growth from your seat of power in your capital city. But sometimes growth comes at a price. You are wise and know that war brings destruction, but also construction. Death opens the way to Life.

Tobbles Toy Review

Despite being in my late 30' s (and, yes, I do find my age to be slightly depressing - thanks for asking), I still play with blocks. Although, these blocks are now LEGOs and I'm creating 3D marvels the likes of which Zeus has not seen. The simple pleasure of building, stacking, and putting things together started the very first time I put two blocks on top of each other as a child. Note I said "blocks". Kids today, since they live in the "future", get to play with spheres.

Euphoria: Build a Better Dystopia Game Review (prepublished version)

From the ashes of war arose a new order determined not to repeat the past. The center of power dwells in the walled city of Euphoria that you call home. Peace and prosperity is abundant, but all is not well. The new world order of Euphoria's elite keeps tight control of the masses through subtle influence. You have been quietly watching, waiting, and learning the game so you, too, might play it. You are a danger - a threat - because you have ideas of your own.

Ars Victor Game Review (prepublished version)

Both sides fire at each from the ground and the sky, while a large cannon emerges from the treeline, unnoticed.

What the Food?! Game Review (prepublished version)

It started out like any other day in the lunchroom. The popular kids sat on one side and everyone else squeezed in on the other. Some say it all started when a brave tuba player from the Pep Band chucked his fruit cup at the football team's quarterback. Some say it was the disgruntled lunch lady. The only thing known for certain is that everyone in that lunchroom came out wearing their lunch that day.
