Note from Martin: Why it's Archna's Free Game of the Week

You'll notice that it's Archna's free game of the week, much like it's Andrea's Freebies. MSE Archna is a stalwart of the team, and in charge of making sure everything's organised, sorted, collated, checked, researched and generally spiffing in the e-mail - as well as being a seriously good researcher.

Sadly though, I noticed that occasionally she loses focus and catch her playing the games that we put at the end of the e-mail. She persuaded me this was part of her 'testing work' - so now it's an official part of her job. She gets to choose the games each week! Blame her if they're no good.

    Not exactly family friendly! Perhaps you should have a warning in the post.

    Edited to add: As it seems they won't be putting a warning, let me do it: This is a game where you have to shoot / kill people standing still offering you no aggression. The graphics are basic but there is blood and you are killing them. The game basically seems to be let's see how many people can we kill with one bullet.

    I wouldn't recommend for under 18's, and despite being well over 18 I stopped playing after 30 seconds as I found it slightly sickening (far far worse than shooting spaceships, or even "war scenarios"), and I actually don't normally mind playing games with violence in. This one just felt wrong though.

    I think you are exaggerating a little bit, don't you think?
  • I quite enjoyed seeing how many little stick men I could kill with one bullet.
