Ipad Purge
Realising that I had spent a year playing Simpsons: Tapped Out had a strange effect on me today. I have been grinding away on the same five iOS games for about the same amount of time, all of them requiring daily visits to collect currency and set up tasks for collection the next day. Now far be it from me as a career gamer to get too into the futility of repetition, but suddenly it occurred to me that these games are chores. Daily tasks that I no longer enjoy doing, but have to do as part of my routine or face the horror of wasted task time. Today I free myself from
the oppressive shackles of EA and Supercell (yes I have a farm on Hay Day), today I take back those ten minutes sat on the toilet way after completing my movements hammering thumbs up icons for coins. Today I become free.
