Zuky the BookBum (15 KP) rated There Will Come Soft Rains in Books

Mar 15, 2018

This is pretty cool, considering it was written in 1950. This is a story about an automated house doing all its programmed chores on a house not affected by the nuclear apocalypse that's left the entire world empty. With things like Amazon's Alexa and other AI things appearing on the market, you can imagine this is the way people will live their lives in the future, with fully automated houses.

This is quite a sad tale really. No matter how advanced our technologies become doesn't mean we're able to escape death and destruction.

Any writers on here that a enjoy Roleplay storytelling online? A place where you and other members build your characters and interact with one another via posts written to interact with the world created for you, with races such as Witches, Werewolves and more! Then visit http://howlsinthewood.proboards.com/ for a place to do just that. There's more information about the world and the rules on the site, but there aren't many members yet. Everyone has to start somewhere right? So please help out my girlfriend who loves writing and building stories with others. She has put her heart into this RP site and can't wait to make new friends, and watch as the world she created evolves through other people's actions. Your support will be greatly appreciated!

LitRPG done right, with an interesting twist

LitRPG is a hard genre to break out into. That being said, Travis Bagwell has done an EXCELLENT job creating believable characters in a fascinating world. Personally, I felt that this was a great twist on the usual LitRPG--because the main character, Jason, discovers that villains aren't all what they seem.

Awaken Online is a brand new VR game that's just hit the market, one with an unusual premise... You're not the hero. You're not the Chosen One. You're a nobody, starting from the ground up. There are no bad guys, and no princesses need to be saved... Just you and your choices.

An outstanding read, and that's coming from someone who reads every day!

Great to play

This is a great card game that I play with physical cards and online. It's really easy to use with very clear instructions and the play mats make everything in game really easy to track.
There is a breakdown of what to do on your turn on it and a very easy way to track hit points.

We play many card games and this is one of our favourites.
The downside to the actual card version is that the stock can be hard to source, when the new packs came out we could find nowhere in our city stocking it despite play fusion telling us a list of stores that supposedly stocked it.
