Think-Ins

Thursday, March 18th, 2004

The other day I received via snail-mail an invitation of sorts. That's right, by regular old mail I got this card, so I checked out Think-Ins.org. Apparently, others have received invitations as well, via email, balloons handed out malls, flyers left on their car windows, even cards hidden in the change they received at a gas station.

Welcome to the Think-Ins Organization. If you are reading this you are already part of the select few who have the opportunity of a lifetime. This amazing event has already taken place around the world and is coming to a location geographically close to you.

What is Think-Ins.org? A new philosophy? A test of sorts? You can only find out by playing (and it's designed to be played alone). I had fun working through the puzzles and I'D especially encourage anyone in the area of the upcoming event to give it a shot. The event takes place very soon! Will you be there?

Project Syzygy

Sunday, March 14th, 2004

Via the venerable danhon comes news of an upcoming game, Project Syzygy. Take a look at the project page for info on how to be notified when the game launches and to apply to work behind the curtain!

You 'Play' Everywhere
Think of it as a cross between:

  • Masquerade (Lagomania)
  • The Beast (Cloudmakers)
  • Pattern Recognition (FFF)
  • Rubik's Cube (Erno)
  • The Matrix (Wachowski)
  • Eternity (Monckton)
  • The DaVinci Code (113581321)
  • Nokia Game (Flo)
  • The Game (Consumer Recreational Services)
  • Majestic (EA)

Project Syzygy is expected to launch in late 2004 but the pre-game fun has already begun. Check out the forum thread and throw your brain into the ring!
