A rarity occurred just now: i played. For a long time, about one and a half hour. What game could remain entertaining for so long? Many, naturally, but in my case, it was now the “mighty” flOw, the game where the player leads a small worm-like creature to evolve, and become the dominant (and only) inhabitant of its region of the sea.

flOw at first came out as a flash game in 2006, and it was very successful, having reached 350 thousand downloads in two weeks from its launch (according to Wikipedia). I got it sometime in 2007, but i don’t remember where have i read about it or where have i seen it–it doesn’t matter either. I haven’t played much with it ever since then, because after completing the second chapter (the Jellyfish), there’s no way further. I’ve read that a bug prevents me from going up to the surface again, but there’s nothing afterwards anyway. In the flash version, there are only two creatures you can control, the first “Worm”, and the second “Jellyfish”. With the Worm, it’s a lot easier than with the Jellyfish, but still not too easy. In its PS3 version, because there’s such a thing, there are many more creatures. (Now comes the summary.) It’s an entertaining, and not easy game, for “all audiences”. If you have a spare hour, give it a try, you won’t regret it.
