H2G2 Game
I just discovered that there is a new 20th Anniversary edition of the hugely popular Hitchhikers Guide to the Galexy Game. I played it a few years ago in the old text based format. The new one still is inherently text based but has cool graphics to help as well. For those of you who have never heard of it, it is based on the strangely intelligent book, radio show, TV series and movie by Douglas Adams, who also designed the game. Playing it reminds me of my early childhood games like "Swiss Family Robinson" Check it out.

Wow... the old Swiss Family Robinson game! I remember playing this back in the Phillipines. I just downloaded it... can't get off the boat yet. I'll try again later.

Yeah. I remember us playing this forever and finally figuring out how to beat it. Cool game. I wish I could play it but I haven't figured out how to on a mac yet.
To get off the boat I think you have to saw the barrels in half and tie them together. Make a raft.

Hey, I beat it in about 5 hours. It wouldn't have taken so long if I could find the stupid feather. Don't forget the "Launch" command. That took me a while as well.
