Juvenile Timewaster of the Day: Questionaut

I don't remember learning modules being this good when I was a munchkin: Samorost creators Amanita have put together a lovely game for the BBC, designed for 11 year olds.

It's short and worth taking for a spin for the lovely environment alone, even if finding 20% of 140 is a bit below your intellectual level.

Samorost 2 Out

If you haven't seen or played Samorost, you've missed out. A one-man project, Samorost is a web game: ethereal, weird, completely gorgeous and just a bit compelling. Part Myst, part Le Petit Prince, it takes some self-control to play as the story unfolds at its own pace, not yours. But it's worth it. More »
