The Blue Period
I know that my post of barely an hour ago said that I wasn't in the mood to think. Now, here I am, directing your attention to something which is exactly what I wasn't looking for but am so glad I found. Let me start by telling you how I got there. (Dontcha just love it when I don't get straight to the point?) I wandered on over to I Am Bored, which has pages and pages of links to games, such as "Escape 1" [You are stuck on a mysterious island], "Hide the Hotties" [You have to hide hot girls in your room], "Escape the Boogeyman" [Can you get out of the house in time? This one's deliciously creepy!], "One Time Never" [A point and click adventure/mystery game], "The Judge" [Decide if the accused is guilty or innocent] or "Whack Your Boss" [Find all 12 ways to whack your boss].
Anyway, I clicked on their link to "Blue Suburbia," which I Am Bored described as an "odd point and click game in a dark blue world," only to discover that it's not really a game at all. It's more like online, interactive, antiestablishment art. So far, I've just navigated through a fraction of the cool and moody artwork and watched "When Johnny Comes Marching Home," a moving, thought-provoking animated film. But I'm looking forward to discovering whatever else awaits me down this Burton-esque rabbit hole.
