PAX 2011: Nun Games!!!

[RSS FEED]

PAX 2011 ended yesterday - today we'll be posting the last bits of our dork-on-the-scene PAX coverage, like this...

It seems like you canâ??t throw a rock at PAX without hitting some booth promoting its game about orcs or zombies or ninjas or cybermarines. But if these unchaste heathens arenâ??t your style, donâ??t worry â?? you can always fall back one of the many games there are aboutâ?¦ nuns! Well, â??manyâ?? might be an overstatement. But we did find two.

First was a board game, Nuns on the Run. Despite its alliterated pornographic-sounding subtitle â?? â??Naughty Novices Dodging Discoveryâ?? â?? the game is actually suitable for players aged 10 years old and up. At night, the novices are lured out of their cells by the excitement of exploring the abbey. As they wander through the halls, they must keep an eye out for the abbess and prioress on patrol. To win the game, the novices must get back to their beds without being caught. EXCITING!!!!

But hey, maybe you donâ??t want to deal with young, sneaky nuns. Maybe you like your nuns kicking ass and taking names in vain. Well, then get ready for Nun Attack coming this winter to your iPad or iPhone! Information about the game is limited, but looking at the four characters that make up your â??Elite Covert Ops Strike Teamâ?? of twisted sisters (with names like Slayer and Tank) the game should be pretty juicy!

Go and sin no more, because you'll be too busy catching up with our PAX 2011 coverage to have any time for sinning.
