Acrophobia is back!

on www.uproar.com...

This was a big time-suck game that used to be on Bezerk.com and IRC. If you played it, you know what I mean...

You get a category (Celebrites) and some letters (DSN), then everyone in a room makes a phrase with each word beginning with one of the letters. (Doherty sexy? NO!)...then everyone had their answer anonymously displayed and the room votes for the best...

It's still on IRC. #acro on Undernet. There may be others too.

I just wish they'd bring back the other games they had too.

No, just this one for now...

I've got lots of cool swag from those guys at Bezerk...I used to beta-test all of the Berkeley Systems games and the online stuff. Lots of You Don't Know Jack shirt and tcotchkes, and a glow-in-the-dark Get The Picture t-shirt!

What was Apples to Apples? I vaguely remember that one...

I loved acrophobia, Get the picture and that steps one.. I can't recall the name at the moment. It had things like Ion storm, etc.. Was a pretty fun game.

Hopefully they get the other games as well, eventually.

Looks like it doesn't support Mozilla, unless there's a plugin I'm missing...
