A computer game by Rod Humble
Thanks to Giacomo Preciado, you can now play the game in a browser at his site:
The downloaded game is for Windows 2000, XP, and Vista.
This is a game that requires explanation. That statement is already an admission of failure...
After showing the game to numerous people I have been pleased by the feedback. One thing which was surprising was just how personal a game this is. Many people immediately related to the game and in one case even used it to explain to their partner how they felt. Equally requests have been made to allow players to make their own rules for the game particular to how their marriage felt. Most striking was one gentleman who after my demonstration accurately guessed “you have never been divorced have you?” quite right sir. Such responses were proof (as if it were needed) that such things as a marriage are unique forms and the best any art can do is inform the general and explain the personal.
As you play the game I hope that after a while you will begin to just let the games rules mix together and lose yourself in the expression of a marriage.
