Desert Island Gamer
By Nerd Rock from the Sun
Stranding someone on a desert island and making them choose stuff...nah, this hasn't been done before! Here's to being original, now onwards to glory or mediocrity!
One guest...three games that have mattered to them during the course of their life...one game that scarred them (to burn for warmth), and one gaming character companion to share long moonlit walks along the beach and the occasional cuddle (for heat people, for heat).
It could be WEIRD, it could be WILD, and it WILL have crappy sound quality, but, at least it will be short!
To the island!
