Downloadable Game of The Day

You've heard me laud it. You heard of me playing it for hours upon hours. You remember me getting completely sick of it. Well, folks, I've rediscovered Slay. This game is much like a "Risk" chess, simple, yet so complex. I've found that the key to not burning out is to avoid playing it for five hours solid every day for a month. I recommend one to two games per day, however, you should consult your doctor before making any changes to your gaming regimen. I have the registered version with all of the levels and puzzles available. This unlimited access has the possibility of eating up your life. Try the free download and let me know what you think.

Ease for the uncoordinated: 5/5 - Nearly unlimited undo, unlimited time to make your move.
Simplicity: 5/5 - Basic rules but...
Strategy Factor: 5/5 - ...it takes serious strategy to progress beyond doing all the levels with the AI players set to "Stupid" versus "Very Clever"
Ease of beating Ayric: 3/5 - Tough to assess. He's pretty good, really. However, I (of course) think my strategy technique is much better, and I can usually beat his number of "days" (turns) to beat an island by at least one or 10%ish (as they all tend to vary in difficulty). Plus, he doesn't use the castles! You have to use the castles!!!
Addiction factor: 5/5 - Did I mention I played this for five hours solid, several days in a row?
