Paraphrase: Songs in Other Words Game Review (prepublished version)

To paraphrase is to use different words to express a previously written or communicated idea or body of work. Sometimes these paraphrases let others say something in a way that is more relevant to their audience, or they can be used to provide insightful wit. In all cases, paraphrases come down to disguising something already well defined or named in a cloak of thick ambiguity. In this game, players will be challenged to take the paraphrase and deduce the actual title of a song. Extra points if you can sing it, too!

Escape the Minotaur’s Maze Game Review

Former American football tight end who played in the National Football League (NFL), Martellus Bennett, said, "Any time you're in a maze, there are multiple ways to get to the end." And in this game, that is true. You have two ways to exit, one of which is death. Alternatively, you can live, but you'll need to navigate and explore an ever-shifting maze as a monstrous minotaur hunts you down. To survive, you must use the maze to your advantage and outwit your opponents. This is one puzzle that'll challenge you to the very end.

Throne of Under Game Review

A general in the United States Army who commanded the Seventh United States Army in the Mediterranean theater of World War II, and the Third United States Army in France and Germany after the Allied invasion of Normandy in June 1944, George S. Patton, said: "Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory." In this game, players will take on the role of ambitious characters who compete in a race to a throne. If they get their first, they get to rule. However, only one butt can sit in that seat and the player's opponents want that throne just as bad as they do. Get ready to race fast, battle hard, and try every trick in the book to trip up your opponents so you get to the throne first!

Zapotec Game Review

An Indian politician who served as the sixth prime minister of India, Rajiv Ratna Gandhi, said, "Civilizations are built by the ceaseless toil of a succession of generations. With softness and sloth, civilizations succumb. Let us beware of decadence." In this game, players must go to work building a pre-Columbian civilization. However, planting crops and feeding the growing population is only part of the goal. Players must also satisfy the increasing populace's religious needs with towering ziggurats. As the capital expands, the land becomes scarce, and the players must become ever more creative in how they go about maintaining growth.

Samurai Shuffle Game Review

Japanese-born American cartoonist and comic book creator, best known for the comic series Usagi Yojimbo, Stan Saki said, "A samurai should always be prepared for death - whether his own or someone else's." When the sword is drawn, there are no more words to speak. Each warrior must live in the moment and the next simultaneously, for both could by their last. So draw your sword, warrior, and may the best - or luckiest - among you be victorious.
