:lol: . I suspect that a game based upon a book of 1854 has a limited audience, still! I must confess that I'd not heard of it... but, hey, a quick look around reveals that the game was recently featured in USA Today.

So... what do you reckon of it?

Haven't played it Jawa. That's why I'm wondering if it is worth a punt. It was quasi reviewed in last week's Times.

I have read the book, four or five years ago. 8-)

PS Thanks for the link. Will have a read.

Edit: I like this quote:- "Thoreau, she realized, was pointing out that people work themselves to death, but that they could throw it off and live a balanced life."

Edit edit:- And this one:- TIME’s Erik Hayden warned, “Get ready for some edge-of-your-seat 19th century transcendentalist action!”

Becoming tempted!

This could become a popular new genre :datass: .
