  2. “More gamer snaps please!!!” is genius.

    But the 2nd page is heaven in text.

    I should really go back and finish that game. Also, I now really want a custard cream, damn you!

    Custard creams with a nice refreshing glass of Fentiman’s Victorian Lemonade, perhaps?

    Although I must admit to prefering Fentiman’s Ginger Ale.

    Reminds me of the Flying Circus “letters to the editor.” Well played, and good jokes for a fun game!

    Much as we love your sense of humour, Tim, we’re far more interested in your dedication to Confectionery Still Life.

    This has been the first Strafe Left posted on here that I’ve enjoyed. Let’s hope it’s not the last?

    This is the most amusing Strafe Left I’ve read here at RPS so far. Understanding that this is an archived comic, I hope you kept up the good work!

    Said desire to play Darwinia may well lead to me failing my two exams this week. Thank you so very much :p
