As part of a seemingly endless promotional campaign for this weekend’s Watchmen movie, the folks at DC (or the studio people, I’m not sure exactly who) have created an 8-bit throwback game for online play. It pretty much consists of walking around and kicking thuggish-looking people, which, for people like me who were raised on 8-bit, can be hours upon hours of entertainment/nostalgia.
The game is cleverly conceptualized too, touting the Veidt brand, which is the fictional corporation within the book.
The game can be found at http://www.minutemenarcade.com/uk/ but take caution because it can be very addictive. I mean, how do you think I get these stills?
ONLY THREE MORE DAYS!
