If colossally boring performance art that leaves you with a vague sense of being trolled is your bag, then have I got the video game for you. Marina Abramovic—star of 2011's The Artist is Present—returns in another low-res homage to her work. Just remember to keep that shift key pressed.

Pippin Barr is back at it again. The video game researcher and artist has built a series of flash games based on the eternal, ironic punishments meted out in Greek mythology, so you can know the agony of Tantalus, Prometheus and others.
