Posted: April 23, 2007

Kings never die clean deaths. They always seem to leave large piles of loot and land just lying around. And it's always an abrupt, unexpected departure from the land of mortals. If those idiots would just set up a will before someone poisons the punch, there wouldn't be all these Warrior Knights running around like crazed terriers, snatching up land and generally making a mess of things for the peasantry. "Highness" indeed.

Zombies Are Were People, Too!

Posted: April 15, 2007

All too often, careless motorists fail to observe traffic signs. When the dead are walking the earth, this usually isn't much of a concern. Staying alive is kinda at the forefront. Regardless, the design on the Zombie Crossing T-Shirt offers you just one more road hazard to keep in mind. Until the zombie in your back seat eats your mind, anyway.

Fair Haven has gotten fairly quiet recently. The cause? Creepy blue mist floating up from the sewer.

A Game The Whole Family Can Injure Themselves With

Posted: April 10, 2007

When it comes to Jungle Speed, you're one of two things: quick or dead. And by "dead," we mean "stuck with a pile of cards you can't get rid of for love or money." Unless you suffer some kind of horrifying accident while trying to snatch the totem. Then, uh, yeah. Dead dead. Fun game, though!
