  • Free Game: Bloons TD 6

    From Spalls Hurgenson@21:1/5 to All on Thu Dec 15 11:03:15 2022
    So, it's Thursday. And there's this game. And it's on the Epic Game
    Store. And it's free! Has there ever been such a wild combination? I
    can't think of one. I wonder what the game is. Let's find out!

    Well.. this is an underwhelming start to their Xmas holiday. Everybody
    is expecting Red Dead Redemption or Elden Ring, and instead we get...
    Bloons, a cutesy and very tower-defense game. Well, I suppose somebody
    will like it. On the plus side, the give-away is only for a day, so
    we'll hopefully get something more exciting tomorrow.

    Knock yourself out. Me, I'm waiting to see what the Moose will bring
    us ;-)

    him the name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the
    Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,
    and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever.'" --Luke 1:30-33.
    Slammier hump day, but not bad as yesterday that made this old ant pass
    out after 11:30 PM and woke up at about 6:30 AM.

    heehee. Reminder that 25% Endless Coupons are back on Epic store, so $20
    is $15. Works on sale items too!

    Meh. Those are valueless to me since that would require me to spend
    money. More, to spend money on a game from the Epic Games Store. Since
    the former is a rare event, and the latter is a non-starter, their
    coupons sit unused on my account until they inevitably expire.

    So meh to the game, and meh to their coupon. I want Elden Scrolls (or
    something of equivalent value and quality. It's XMas, so gimme! ::;-)
