My family gave me a Wii for Christmas. A couple of days later I downloaded Fluidity (and had no idea at the time that it had just been released 2 days before). It’s the first real game I’ve owned and played since … college? Yeah, college. And it’s the first game I’ve played since Myst that had Myst-like appeal. Interlocking puzzles, puzzles in new worlds that help you solve puzzles in old worlds, scenery that you can manipulate, scenery that makes more and more sense the more you know about the world and its puzzles.

Yeah, I’m obsessed.

I’ll be doing my dishes and think “I wonder if I can get on TOP of the cable car. I bet that’d do it.”

I’m so impatient to solve all the puzzles, and I’m also so glad that there are about 100 of them and that I’ve only just made a dent. Most of all, though, I’m glad for the upcoming 3-day weekend.
