Is Being The King Of Loathing Anything Like Being The Mayor Of Simpleton?

Time for Wiki Wednesday.

You know - you go to Wikipedia, you click on "random article," you report on the outcome.

Here's my random Wiki Wednesday find for this week:

Kingdom of Loathing

Kingdom of Loathing (KoL) is a satirical browser game created by Asymmetric Publications (Zack "Jick" Johnson and Josh "Mr. Skullhead" Nite). It is notable for the usage of simple hand-drawn stick figure graphics and surreal gameplay.

The game is an RPG, where players fight monsters for experience, for meat (which is the currency), and for items. This is done through a turn-based system, where users get 40 "adventures" a day. The number of adventures can be greatly increased by food and booze, as well as certain items.

It's things like this that make Al Gore regret he ever invented the Internets.

It's actually very clever and quite fun. No matter what Al Gore thinks. ;)
