Wouldn't you argree? Wingnuts, Enigma, and Airburst are all great games. Not to mention All of their new other games. Then theres the Burning Monkey seris of games. Because of mostly Macintosh support Freeverse is my favorite game company.

I agree completely, Freeverse is great! Burning Monkey Solitaire II is hilarious (it has my favorite solitaire version, Calculation; and even has 52 card pick up!). And I've gotten endless amusement from Jared and SimStapler.

sorry dont' think I have ever heard them. I like Diablo 2, Star Craft, UT and Civ 3. Do you think any of their games would fit my liking?

They do have a few titles that look pretty good. However, they all seem to be about the same in play. Don't know haven't played them. I'm I right or do they play somewhat differently?

I've heard of them before but never paid much attention to them. Your right though, they have some great games. I think I'll support them by buying one.

I agree in Ambrosia. While Bushifire and Airburst may be great, EV Nova or Deimos Rising outperforms those by far!

Bushfire and Airburst were both produced and distributed by Strange Flavour before they joined the Freeverse fold. When I think of Freeverse I think of card/board games, and I haven't seen anyone do that better. Viva la iPuppet!

Freeverse will never top thier Opus, Jared, Butcher of Song. I have clicked on him a thoused times and laugh as though it's the first time I ever heard him.

My wife doesn't get it, though.
