24: The Game



Besides reflection, Easter is a time to do the stuff you normally don't get the time to do, especially when you're bored. So on Friday I pulled out "24: The Game", a gift Tara brought me for my birthday two and a half years ago that I'd only played a few times due to difficulty playing, time and lack of enthusiasm for the game. To my excitement, the game is actually really cool and after the first two levels there is plenty of variety to the game- location and task wise. It took me a while to work out basic things, like using cover and not just walking into open rooms, and now it's much more fun to play. As soon as I get better at not shooting hostages I should have the game down pat. I'm stuck on a level where I walk into a room with 4 guys with machine guns and one of them has a hostage I need to question. So far my hostage keeps getting shot by me in the head, so I've got some work to do. It's been an unexpected fun surprise this Easter and I look forward to completing it and then possibly looking into other popular games with the kids these days.

It is an awesome game! I finished it 2 years ago. Once you get the hang of it you fly through it. There are about 4 levels that held me up but soon you're on your merry way.
