I wanted to talk to you guys today about a really cool game I came across called Netrikulator. Netrikulator is an addictive puzzle game with a real tech twist. In the game play, which is similar to the ’80s game called Pipe Dream, but instead of connecting pieces of plumbing, you connect nodes of a computer network together. On launch, a really cool-looking interface with mysterious music launches, and you can choose to start a new game, check on your high scores, change around your settings, or quit the game. Naturally, I chose to begin playing. It gave me two sets of dots, one red and one blue, and two different colors of pieces. I was to connect the two sets of dots together using the pieces. Now, the fact that I am by no means a good problem solver, it definitely took me quite a few tries to learn this game, but it did indeed get extremely addictive. Now, it’s even hard for me to write this review because I keep getting the urge to go back and play it. It’s a great game, though, and it’s only $9.00 U.S., so I definitely recommend that you check it out at its website.
