An Idiot Abroad

Posted by Notcot on Jan 7, 2011 in Cult Film

Presenting the Travel Diaries of Karl Pilkington: Adventurer. Philosopher. Knob head. Karl Pilkington isn’t keen on travelling. Given the choice, he’ll go on holiday to Devon or Wales or, at a push, eat English food on a package holiday in Majorca. Which isn’t exactly Michael Palin, is it? So what happened when he was convinced by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant to go on an epic adventure to see the Seven Wonders of the World? Travel broadens the mind, right? You’d think so…

Machinarium : Collectors Edition (PC/Mac DVD)

Posted by Notcot on Sep 3, 2010 in Steampunk

Average Rating: 4.0 / 5 (21 Reviews)

Probably the most magical and entertaining game you will ever play.

We cannot recommend this one enough. Lovingly crafted by Amanita Design (of Samorost fame), Machinarium is an outstanding example what happens when close group of designers pour their heart and soul into something very special. This should be the benchmark for all adventure games.
Simply Beautiful.
Enjoy – Notcot

Machinarium - Amanita Design

Collectors Edition includes:

  • Additional CD with the games music and 5 additional bonus sound tracks
  • Booklet including never seen before concept art
  • A3 Poster
  • A printed walkthrough

Machinarium is a puzzle video game developed by Amanita Design. The goal of Machinarium is to solve a series of puzzles and brain teasers. The puzzles are linked together by an overworld consisting of a traditional point and click adventure story.

The overworlds most radical departure is that only objects within the player characters reach can be clicked on. Machinarium is notable in that it contains no dialogue, neither spoken nor written. The game instead uses a system of animated thought bubbles.
