A place of productivity, social interaction. And, as all of you know who are forced by sardonic co-workers to read the newest “Dilbert” at lunch break and accordingly ROFL out of politeness not to fall prey to office mobbing, a terrible wasteland of souls, hell.

56KmodernunstoppableDavid Rees however hits the office world at its soft spot: business presentations. He took the clip arts from productivity enhancing management pamphlets and created My new filing technique is unstoppable . Fight the file cabinet from 1992 with your more or less productive young man from 1990! Collect business ammo, and fend off the Henderson, Eagleson, Masterson and Anderson files while listening to funky muzak!

Oh, and by the way: This was released as a promotional game to David Rees’ book My new filing technique is unstoppable. Just so you know.

Well, here it is, Samorost. The travels of a little gnome through a hyperspace of roots and moss, accompanied by a futurist soundtrack and a wobbly hat. You take control from the outside, manipulating grassy little dioramas and trying to guide the little gnome safely

samorost1through symbiotic unities of scrap and nature.

This was the first work of Jakub Dvorsky, whose Amanita Design is currently enjoying Indie fame with Machinarium – he expanded his nostalgic scrap-planet-universe and made a full-length puzzle game of it.
