Description

A short, simple notgame* inspired by transcendentalism.

Go for a calming walk through a variety of settings, overcoming a few challenges along the way. You will meet a farmer, a poor student, and a bat, each of whom will share highlights from Henry David Thoreau's Walden. Prior exposure to Thoreau's writing is not assumed.

If you find yourself stuck, there is a video walkthrough here: http://vimeo.com/12519291

(*I am aware that this is not a "game", and that it will not appeal to all, or even many, players. My hope is that at least a few people might find and appreciate in this something different than what we enjoy about other entertainment programs on this site.)

Have you heard the one about the Buddhist who, when going to get a root canal, turned down his dentists offer of Novocain? His goal: Transcend dental medication.

the best games (or non-games) are never appreciated well by the majority. if your only comment to this is "wtf not a game" or "boring", you are truly lost my little sheep.
