There's me saying I'm not interested in the sale and less than a day
later I've bought a game. Now in my defence I wasn't actually going
through the Steam sale but instead someone mentioned Chaos in a ZX
Specky group. That reminded me of a game I'd heard about, Chaos Reborn -
well at £1.74 I thought why not.
That's happened to me more than a few times; I'm suddenly made aware
of a game that has some relation to another game I remember enjoying,
and all of a sudden The Number has incremented upwards again.
Nostalgia is a helluva drug.
I do remember it when it was first released but it seemed a bit expensive as where Chaos really came to life was the hot-seat experience with a group of friends. The combination of RNG, fake creatures and tactics really brought out those high-and-lows that to me are core to in-person social gaming.
At £1.74, I couldn't resist.
