When you play - how do you do it? I mean - what is your style - are you all about scoring every possible point, gaining every bonus checking out every corner, or, are you more about the spirit of the game - Do you play seriously - or for fun.
I am a fun player. I like to sit down and have a ball. We tend to spend our days running around like panicked rats in traps - will I be able to do this and that and the other? OMG - I’ll never get this done!, and so on, that when I finally get to relax - I want to do just that.
I used to annoy my friends whith my game style which seemed to them to be unfocused and not that serious… but I stuck with it.
Jason Della from Reality Panic tried on something similar for size and this is how he sums it up:
Admittedly, I am feeling a bit of anxiety (especially when running past a pile of crates), but I am enjoying the more “carefree” style of play. Or rather, I’m just playing the game rather than the game playing me!
So - Do you Play or does the game Play you?

Hi Gail, I agree with you. I do love playing because it’s one of the ways I can get myself relaxed from all the hard day’s work but as I am a very busy person I have to find a game that will suit my schedule and my liking.
So what are you playing now? I am into an online game called Realm of Empires. It’s a Facebook application that you play for like 10-15 minutes. It’s not really very demanding of your time so I love it very much. Are you also into medieval gaming?
Right now I’m trying to get a handle on Auditorium, which is a little different from the usual… a bit more abstract. I will look into the Realm of Empires. Sounds like a good option, especially as it can be played for short periods of time.
Yes Gail, Realm of Empires for me is one of the best choices among the games that you can play these days. You won’t get bored because you only need few minutes to spend and go on with your next daily activity. You can visit the game even once a day and the game will continue to progress even without your full attention. It would be my pleasure to walk you through the game if you are interested :)
