Communication Breakdown: Gamer Mom

Gamer Mom is a rather lovely browser game about games, although not in some sort of complex metagaming metasense. Instead, Gamer Mom is a conversation between a mother and her family, at a dinner table, and the topic of discussion, skirted around, flanked and finally approached, is World of Warcraft. She loves it, it's her social life and her escape, but her family don't really understand. It's about people really and the great divides between them. As player, you guide the conversation and, unnervingly, perhaps the family's future. It's sad, sweet and short, with plenty of branches to discover. Click here to see.
