Chances are good that because you’re reading this newsletter, you were the creepy sort of kid — excuse me, I meant “curious” sort — who enjoyed crisping leaves, frying insects, and even burning tattoos onto your kid brother’s forehead with a magnifying glass on a sunshining day. If that description brings back fond memories, then you’re going to LOVE this month’s strange gizmo. It’s called “Ant City” and the premise is simple: you’re a giant with a magnifying glass that lets you fry all those pesky little human beings (and dogs, and cars, and so on) down below. http://www.channel4.com/entertainment/games/gameson4/ant_city.html
If you like this diversion, then go to bossmonster.com for even more weirdness (I recommend the bizarre “Just Not Cricket”)
