Explaining Gamin’ to the Layman - Casual Style
wanted paying they shouldn’t
have put it up for free.
How to explain:
Sometimes you just want to
congratulate the developer on
a job well done, other times
you just want to use a cheat
code. You could wait fifty-seven
hours for three Crystal Berries,
but in fifty-seven hours you
have plans. So if you wait, it
will be Tuesday before you
collect them and December
before the next Crystal Berries
grow - so cheat code. Sure it
costs money, but you earnt the
money you’re spending, so it’s
perfectly acceptable to use it
buying things you want. And
you want six Crystal Berries
come November, damn it!
Endless Games
Why the laymen doesn’t get it:
It’s just one level and you keep
moving through it, avoiding
everything in your path,
to get a score that means
nothing? This other game has
ten levels and finishing story
mode gets ten more. And
you can send Cannon Chips
to people on Friendster!
