Interactive Fiction Competition 2008 is now running

35 new IF games have just been released as part of the annual IF competition. Maybe it's just luck of the draw, but the first one I tried was a lot of fun. Check them out!

Games as Art

The Maison d'Ailleurs, museum of science fiction and the otherworldly, opened Saturday an exhibit in honor of H. P. Lovecraft. The exhibit features dozens of original paintings and works of short fiction based on ideas from Lovecraft's notebooks, but also a collection of games written for the occasion: five works of interactive fiction in English, French, and Spanish, and two graphical adventures.

Peter Nepstad's site carries more news about the exhibit, as well as download links for those of us who can't casually visit Switzerland and would like to play the works at home.
