I caught him! And what did I get? A big "congratulations"? End sequence? Progression to level 2? No - I got nothing! The damned furball just sits there, looking all "yeah, I meant to do that".

Stupid cat.

I don't think it was actually intended to be Christopher Walken; it's amusing, though.

Okay, that impossible platform game is teh EEEEVILL!!1!! I was cussing at it and the SO is trying to say he can win it just to show me how lame I am--I've double dog dared him to try it and will laugh heartily at his bitter defeat!

I feel a little better about myself in that I can actually get somewhere with this one. It's a little tough on a laptop using a touch pad though--not as responsive as a mouse.

Has anyone tried the gnome finding one? I was all WTF--couldn't see a damned thing that looked like a gnome but I'm pretty farsighted and close in vision is not my forte.

Heh, yeah, but it's the first thing that came to mind.

I found eight of the gnomes, then went mad. Mad, I tell you!

With the gnome thing it's less about looking for stuff and more about clicking all over the screen - you end up progressively zooming in until you find them. It's not that fun, in my opinion.
