Thimbleweed Park By: Terrible Toybox (Ron Gilbert) I'm not going to mince words. When I first heard about and saw screenshots of Ron Gilbert's Thimbleweed Park, I had some excitement mixed with dread. Dread that it would mimic old retro games to a point that wouldn't be enjoyable for me. I'm very sensitive about games wasting my time, and a list of action verbs on the screen was not that appealing to…

Uri: The Sprout of Lotus Creek By: Γò¼├║╬ô├▓├▓Γö¼├¡Γö¼ΓòíΓö£┬╜Γö£┬╗Γö¼Γòí╬ô├▓├▓╬ô├▓├▓ (Dream Tree) I'd been cautiously keeping an eye on Dream Tree's puzzle platformer, Uri: The Sprout of Lotus Creek up to its release. The teaser videos didn't give a good idea what the game would be like, but I was curious about the cencept of using the user interface (UI) as controls.
