It's nice that they want to make a message or something but it should be done in a more logical fashion. The only way a game would be more widely avoided would be if it said "Free herpes with every purchase!"on the box. A message does no good if people avoid it QED.
Good Lord. That's not even right.
Aren't games supposed to be, you know, fun?
A game that randomly deletes files form your computer is reeeeeeeeeeeeeally far from fun.
Unless you want to 'format' your drive in a very creative way. And, even that wouldn't work because, at some point, this thing would probably delete a file that keeps the game running ¬.¬

When a game does this by accident, it's pilloried by critics as a buggy pile of shit that shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a PC.
When a game does this on purpose? There's a term for a program that does that, and Norton, McAfee, Trend Micro, and the makers of Avast like to stick the word "anti-" before it when touting their own wares.

So...Basically it's the game that does what I did to my aunts computer when I was a little kid
It randomly deletes things until the computer ceases functioning altogether.

On the one hand it's an ingenius statement of the importance of technology.
On the other hand it's incredibly stupid considering how important technology is with our lives when we might have system files, personal files and business files involved.
Touche Lose/Lose.

True, but I'm assuming you kept a record of which ones were which? When you play with DOS, you need to know the rules.Alex_P said:
As much as I love art games, this game just fails at whatever message it's trying to convey. No one is going to voluntarily download what is essentially malware, and as a result no one is going to be discussing any of the things that the artist mentioned in their summary.
