Has anyone been sucked into Pennergame, a controversial German web game that asks players to rise from virtual homelessness to great wealth, by any means necessary? It is a text-based game popular in Germany, it is the third fastest growing website, falling just behind Facebook.
Yesterday the guys behind the game are launching an English version called Dossergame, which retains the same gameplay as the original with a London-themed slant (the creators may released localized US versions in the future). Once again gamers are asked to “beg, animal-fights, collect junk and to form gangs with other players” in the quest to rise from tramp to “castle owner”.
I am going to check out what all the fuss is about, if anyone else joins let me know maybe an MUScoop gang:
