Dash, The Evil God



Dash has started to like real time strategy games and he decided to use his own birthday money to buy Black and White 2. This is a "God" game. Basically, you are a disembodied hand and you rule an island inhabited by tiny people and a huge creature. You raise this creature and train him to do good or evil as you see fit. You can help villagers and nurture the land or you can destroy them. You can bend them to your will using benevolent acts or fear. Guess which side Dash is on?

The above picture is his reaction to his ability to pick little villagers up with his hand and huck them across the landscape. He picks up villagers and drops them in the sea. Then he picks up a huge rock and drops it on top of them.

The game is very cool in that it shows consequences of good or bad actions. The terrain and architecture change to reflect the disposition of your rule. Unfortunately, Dash is evil. I hoped he would be good. But he is evil.

Now, I suppose, I should turn my attention to Magali and cross my fingers.
