Reviews for "The Free Culture Game"

Bit of a silly game really

I mean, I bet all this talk of evil corporations in the market brainwashing people into being "passive consumers" makes sense to college students after a few joints, but it doesn't really stand up to any amount of scrutiny.

For example, when the evil corporations suck up the ideas that the people in the middle spit out, it is because the individual has decided to copyright an idea of theirs and make money off of it. Who are we to judge them for that? If someone has an invention, it's morally acceptable for them to want to capitalize on it. If someone has an interesting idea, it's completely OK for them to put it in a book and SELL it.

Moreover, I reject this "passive consumer" malarky. I'm a consumer. That's what kind of economic agent I am. I work for firms and use the income I earn by doing this to consume goods and services. Does that mean I'm a passive, unthinking drone who just does what the evil corporations tell me? No, it means that I buy stuff that I like. I might buy TVs, I might buy books, I might buy airplane tickets to go abroad and experience another culture. Consumption does not render me an uncultured, ignorant moron, and I find the assertion that it does offensive.

Yeah, so in conclusion it's a decent enough game, but the message is incoherent and, quite frankly, offensive.

Uhh..

This game kinda sucked, but i found it quite funny that when I tried to lose on purpose, I couldn't. I could never beat it, but I can never lose. 6/10 cuz it made me laugh. And 2/5

good but...

It's simple and funny, but a little hard to discover what to do with the cursos and the lightbulbs. Well, a game is a game.

Too Easy

My score should probably be an 8 if this is a feature intended to make a point rather than a problem, but once you figure out to completely and utterly ignore the market and pretend it doesnt even exist, let it eat as many ideas as it wants and focus on getting information to whoever is closest to the idea, the game becomes a joke.

Played for 30 minutes before manually closing the game (with 5 people still in the commons)

Keep your communism to yourself, you filthy hippy

Nah, just kidding. Nice game. I wish the heads had just a little bit stronger pull, though. This game manages fun for a little while, even though I'm not particularly good at it, which I think is awesome.
