Game of the week: ForumWarz
Feb 27th, 2008 by lavonardo
If the prospect of a postmodern webgame that concentrates on the wrong side of the internet culture appeals to you at all, ForumWarz is heavily recommended.
ForumWarz is a beautifully realized implementation that emulates the whole internet in a single browser window - be it forums, instant messaging, misanthropic people, suspicious webstores or spam, it’s all here. And as a game it’s a great parody
Me, I’m a third level troll, on track to pwn as many forums as possible with tools such as spoiler generation and gratuitous ASCII art.
EDIT (16.3.2008): Andy Baio < href="http://www.waxy.org/archive/2008/02/25/forumwar.shtml">interviews the authors. It’s not your average interview:
We used to drink beer and go out for dinner at every meeting, but after a couple of months that got expensive and unproductive.
