After years and years of being abused by snot-nosed, spoiled generation XBox kids sporting zombie expressions and having no ambitions of aspiring for successful lives, the cuddly plush toys, belonging to these generation brats, now discarded to the side, must fend for themselves and somehow manage to live out the rest of their miserable existence having to process all of the beatings they had to endure from their owners. This left scars. Lots of them.

They’ve been admitted to The Asylum: A Psychiatric Clinic for Abused Cuddly Toys, but they don’t even know why they are there. Their main psychiatrist has abandoned them so it is now up to you to help them. Muster up all the knowledge you can and get to that hospital to save these once cute and cuddlies!

Consider this an online memory game of “Simon” except replace the plastic lights and computer hum sounds with 3D bonobo chimps and their bongos. Bono or Bado (I’m not sure what his name is!), the chimp on the left, will play a rhythm for you on his bongos. You, the cute guy on the right, have to mimick the exact rhythm that he just played. Click on the bongo to make the sounds. If you mimick correctly, you’ll know by the reaction of the bonobos. If you’ve played incorrectly, you’ll get an obvious thumbs down (or a shake of the head). You’ll continue until you have to go back to work.

The band, Polyphonic Spree has gone a different route to publicize and market the release of their upcoming CD/album called “Together We’re Heavy.” Rather than the usual magazine ad or short promo spot on television, they’ve decided to take a more fun approach, a way for prospective listeners to have fun while hearing samples from their new works to be released and published on July 13.
The Polyphonic Spree – The Quest for the Rest is an interactive adventure in the form of an online game. The player/listener must find ways for the main characters of the game to find each other. There are no rules and so, the player has to experiment and explore. It is hypnotic and fun all at the same time, and you get to listen to the band!

Here’s a silly, kooky yet immensely fun and adorable game made in Denmark. In the game, you have to run around the streets of Copenhagen but the nasty trick is that you have to run around naked! Why do you have to run around naked? I dunno. Chalk it up to the Scandinavian humor of the game developers and possibly think about how COLD it is up in those Nordic countries. (lightbulb moment?!) Kind of funny I guess. Anyway, you have to dodge cars and other obstacles getting in your way of getting to your destination? Where’s your destination you ask? I’m glad you asked because you have to jump in with a group of Japanese tourists having their picture taken by the little mermaid in Copenhagen. Just imagine the photo of you having jumped into the photo at the last minute before that “click!” of the camera taking a photo. Cute? That depends on what you look like naked
