Welcome to today’s Funhouse Picks! In the Game section we present a unique drag-and-drop experiment; the Fun Site of the Day will teach you how to make fantastic dollar bill origami; and our Video Collection features some amazing feats with quarters and ping-pong balls.
Grow is part game and part experiment, from Japanese game makers, Eyezmaze. It’s really an original and refreshing point and click adventure. You have a large red sphere with the word “GROW” in the middle. You have 12 items that you can add to the Grow sphere in any order. As you add new items to the ball, older items start to grow, expand and interact with each other. The more they grow, the more points you get. Some items effect other items in specific ways, so the fun is discovering the proper order in which to drop the items on the sphere to get the most points. Each time the game plays out in strange ways.
Grow is a very interesting concept from very original designers. It also provides stress free gaming for those who just want to play around a little.
This blog post features 5 sets of instructions or instructional videos which show you how to create really cool Origami (paper-folding) items out of dollar bills. You can leave these interesting creations for tips and put a smile on your wait person’s face.
