Everybody dies, OnEscapee

I ask you, who doesn't like free stuff?

the answer is no one of course.

With that in mind, here's two free computer games that will help you waste all your time and not have a single productive thought all day


Everybody Dies

Written by Jim Munroe with illustration by Michael Cho Everybody dies is a piece interactive fiction that deals with subjects such as prejudice, death, and teamwork. Cho's art is done sparingly and very rarely depicts a scene, more often than not it's used to express emotion through small groups of surreal pictures.
Monrue's writing is spot on and made me laugh at moments of utter darkness that should by all reasoning make me cringe.

OnEscapee

Released in 1997 for the amiga OnEscapee is an adventure game that owes a lot stylistically to Another World. In this Adventure game with a hint of action you play Daniel White, a young man who is abducted by aliens. Daniel escapes and goes on a journey through an underground alien world trying to escape from his captors.
This one has a lot of puzzles, some of which are so hard and frustrating that you might find your self stuck on the same section for days. Perhaps I'm just slow and not in the same Adventure game shape as i was back in the 8th grade.
This game was made available as a free PC version by the original creators in 2005, it can be downloaded here
