Missing: Since January by Carol T Chung

AdventureCo-Missing.jpg

This is not a typical game. Consequently, it doesn't have typical game packaging. Missing: Since January is a puzzle game where the user attempts to solve the mystery of a journalist and his companion's disappearance, (hence the keyword, missing). Using Windows and the Internet for game play, users have access to 300 real and fictional websites to help with the investigation. Users also receive emails from non-player characters. Missing: Since January also uses a cast of professional actors to create real video footage for the game.

I already knew Josh was...
Google Fight
Google Fight creates a duel between two search queries with a cute little flash interface. It measures Google results for any two words or phrases--such as God vs. Satan. Who do you think has more google results? Luke Skywalker of Darth Vader, Josh Rubin or Tony Soprano? Find out for yourself if you're bored and want a laugh. It has no affiliation with Google,...
