This week, the paragraph-based solitaire game Barbarian Prince. If that’s not enough of a mouthful, it’s also a Dwarfstar game.

Sorry about the delay on this one.

Final Thoughts:
As I was driving to work today (listening to Garrett’s Games and Geekiness), I realized that the review section may have been a little confusing. While the random encounters can be pretty annoying, the rest of the game isn’t too bad. That’s why I said it was a good way to pass time: as long as you don’t take it too seriously, you’ll probably enjoy it, at least for a little while.
