Bored, bored, bored

What to do... I'm bored. Not enough time to get settled into a good session of WoW or even do a few missions of H.A.W.X before I go to bed. Instead, I have turned to my iPhone for inspiration. And boy, did I find it!!

Introducing Stick Wars, the quick boredom reliever that costs a huge $1.19.

What is Stick Wars you ask? Well, you control a castle and have to defend it from advancing stick men, some wielding swords, carrying shields or pushing large siege engines. To begin with you are all alone, a god-like presence that cannot be seen, only felt as you throw the attackers into the air, gravity doing the rest of the dirty work for you as the stick men come crashing back to the earth in a spectacular explosion of blood.

Then you get the chance, at the end of every level, to gather up your gold (that you get for killing the attackers) and buy upgrades to your castle, like a prison to capture and convert attackers, an archery range or wizard's school, to train your converts into defenders, or just upgrade that wall a bit more so it takes more of a punishing before you lose.

So, only at level 32 so far, yet I don't know how long I can put the game down for. Maybe when the battery is fully charged again I'll go for Round 2.
