This game is fairly
straightforward – you wave your cursor over colorful, adorable
squids to gain ink to upgrade your squids so you can get ink. It’s
the squid version of that 90s anti-cocaine ad. You start off with a
tiny squid and only black ink, but as you go on, you get bigger and
more colorful squids and ink, all of which can earn you in-game
currency (shells) and premium currency (doubloons). Best of all, the
doubloons are free in-game so you don’t have to spend money. (which
begs the question of why there are even two currencies...)
The levelup process
is ridiculously fast early on. Within five minutes I was level 51 and
hauling in millions of ounces of ink per second.
Really, there’s
not much to the game, it’s just a relaxing, flash-style game with
squids, ink, seashells, etc.
One of the squids is
a knight. His name is Sir Cephalopod. I hadn’t yet got him when I
started writing this entry.
It’s really just a
very cute, relaxing game. All of the squid designs are cute, the way
they change sizes based on how much you upgrade them is cool, and the
ocean sounds are kind of soothing and fun.
Sorry if this week’s
gaming post is too short – there’s just not as much to say about
a cute game of squid ink collection as I thought there’d be!
Go Enjoy Something!

Update – while
playing this game I unlocked a powerup called “Magic Massager”.
It’s a Hitachi wand. Wtf, game…
