Wizards and Pigs

So Halloween was a couple days ago, and on the afternoon of this day my sister was sifting through our costume collection trying to figure out something to wear that night to go trick-or-treating. Scavengering through cheerleader, ghostbuster and princess costumes led to the finding of a little wizard hat. With the addition of a black cloak my sister automatically decided that she was to be a wizard for that night. Once she put the entire costume on, I freaked. She reminded me of Wizards and Pigs! Wizards and Pigs is a game on this website called Game Goo that we used to play during the computer lab in like second grade. Well, most of us played it throughout our elementary school lives because it was that amazing. And I may or may not have played it this morning :) The game revolves around a wizard going around to monster things (I think they're supposed to be pigs...) and figuring out if what the monsters are saying is a rhyme, alliteration, or rhythm. Once you choose the right one, a key appears in place of the monster. Collecting all of the keys leads to the opening of a special doorway, and you win the game! It's kinda tedious because you can only use the mouse to direct the person and there are so many doorways that look the same, but it is a classic nonetheless. Anyone who I've mentioned this game to reminisces about good times spent in the computer lab at Breen trying to figure out how to reach the end of the game. Who knew a kid's learning game could be so fun? This Halloween brought Wizards and Pigs back into my life, and after telling my friends about it, theirs as well!
