One Show game offers illusion of self-worth
Posted in: Uncategorized
For a fun Friday diversion, check out Hack Man, a Pac-Man knockoff from The One Show in which you play a creative executive who exacts revenge on four work-related monsters: the confused planner, the “yes sir†account director, the scared client and (somewhat oddly) the client’s wife. The game diverges from real life in one significant respect: the monsters remain vulnerable for quite a while after the creative eats a light-bulb-shaped power pellet—i.e., comes up with a good idea. The game was created by La Comunidad. Entries to The One Show 2008 are due by Jan. 31.
