So now, instead of the hilarious gag we instinctively created -- involving making a mustache out of honey and cat hair and then putting it on a mime -- we're just going to wish Cecil all the best. Dammit.

In a world filled with mines, one man must stand tall and save us all. With a flag in hand, he sets out to mark every mine so we may walk the land in peace. So maybe, with his hot babe in hand, our hero can one day put on his shades and ride off in the sunset.

I don't know how this will work, nor do I know wether or not it would be successful.
All I know is that the gameplay is going to piss you the fuck off.

Until one day he accidentally stuffs the hot babe on top of a mine and goes to kiss the flag, impaling his face. Thus ends his epic journey.

It's a reference to one of the Gabriel Knight games.
To rent a motorcycle you needed a form of ID (A passport)
To get a passport you had to steal one from a gentleman's room
To get into his room you had to make yourself look like him to trick a bellhop
To trick a bellhop you had to, among other things, give yourself a mustache
To give yourself a mustache, you had to (this is where it gets weird) get hair from a cat
To get hair from the cat, you had to use scotch tape
To get the cat to run into the scotch tape, you had to chase it into a hole in a shed, above which you had to affix the scotch tape
To affix the hair to your face, you had to use a packet of maple syrup that you had stolen from the gentleman's room earlier in the game
All to rent a motorcycle. Imagine how logical THIS was to figure out.
People point to this when discussing why the adventure game died off.
I got these steps from an article I read a long while ago on my internet journeys, I don't have the link, sadly.

Oh, and I failed to mention that the man you must imitate doesn't EVEN HAVE A MUSTACHE. You have to draw one on his passport with a marker.
I know some of my steps are off, it's been a long time since I read about it, but the whole affair is roughly that... insane.

Anyone else notice that the game pictured isn't possible? Some of the numbers have fewer spots for mines adjacent to them than they should.

Imma go ahead and correct myself here. I was wrong. The edges of the shown pic isn't the edges of the board, so everything does work.
And for those wondering how to play this game, here's the idea:
Each number tells how many bombs are adjacent to that square. You have to decide if a mine exists at a spot by looking at the numbers surrounding it and ...I don't think I can explain this game without demonstrating, so forget it.

There is an adventure game with a minesweeper feel. It was called Betrapped! and it was a very good game.
I'm noticing more and more on this site that any game that isn't halo or CoD gets slammed constantly by the bloggers. Are they ignorant, uneducated, or do they only consider it a true game if they get to yell obscenitys while killing other people? Expand your horizons once and a while.
