Happy New Year! I know of three cool new games to play this week.
-
Emily Short just released her newest game, Counterfeit Monkey, and it’s a doozy. You start the game with a full-alphabet letter remover, allowing you to transform “chard” into a “card” by removing the H. emshort.wordpress.com/2012/12/3 … it-monkey/

Andrew Plotkin wrote a choice-based game for Yuletide, “Bigger Than You Think.” eblong.com/zarf/zweb/btyt/ Like an old-timey “Choose Your Own Adventure” novel, but when you pick up inventory items at dead ends, you keep them when you restart.
-
Choice of Games released “Choice of Kung Fu” by Alana Joli Abbott; I think it’s one of our finest releases yet, right up there with “Choice of Broadsides.” choiceofgames.com/kung-fu/
