Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2010 5:00 am Post subject: Godville anyone? |
|
|
Anyone had a crack at Godville? It's a fun little text "ZPG" - zero player game. You set up a little hero and then just set them running, and they do everything for you. They'll even carry on doing so if you abandon them and never return. You can influence them in small ways using "godpower" that they give you by praying...
It's pretty funny really, lots of tongue in cheek humour, much of which is user-submitted (you can submit and rate others' ideas on pretty much any aspect of the game):

You can find it on iphone/ipod touch for free, or at the godvillegame.com website. Once you're in, you can "invite" me to become your friend - XiaoLiang. Although there doesn't seem to be any benefit to either person, other than being able to IM each other ingame... _________________ Ironically, Halen's one of the few people here I wouldn't worry about terrifying my friends and family.

His English is not nearly bad enough to be a spambot. We all know you can't be one if you get basic grammar right. |

Oops, I thought Michael wanted an invite. Now I only have 1 invite left - really I should save it for mizike, since he asked first. I started another character, so I should have more invites soon! _________________ Ironically, Halen's one of the few people here I wouldn't worry about terrifying my friends and family.
