Davis Freeberg’s Site Of The Week

February 17th, 2007 Davis Posted in Site Of The Week, Video Games |

This week’s winner of the site of the week contest was the game Wone. With such a crazy name, I’m not exactly sure how to phonetically pronounce the name of the site, but I do know that the game is a lot of fun. The game is actually pretty simple, you control a tire in a bizzarre world made up of ramps, walls and platforms. You can roll the tire left or right, but must collect a series of barrels in order to pass each level. At each stage the game gets harder and harder and while I played the game quite a bit over the last week, I still couldn’t make it past level 4.

What I like about the game is that it is simple and yet it is still highly entertaining. There are no nuclear bomb buttons, no super power moves, no vertical jumping, just the ability to roll back and forth like an old tire. Trying to figure out the optimum speed to jump off the ramps could be tough, but once you hit it just right there is a great feeling of satisfaction from making your way through this virtual garage. Congratulations to Wone for winning this week’s site of the week contest.
