Henry David Thoreau's 'Walden' is now a video game.



In our modern, chaotic world, nothing reminds you of pulse-pounding action and adventure like the frantic stylings of Henry David Thoreau's Walden. The tiny cabin, the ruminations on passing birds, the reflections on the weather, the introspection while chopping wood--if anything was made to be a video game, it's this.





Look at all that serene canoeing action! Look at all that passive water fowl! And don't get me started on the hammering action!

I haven't been taken aback by this much commotion and frenzy since that time I ate some plain rice cakes for lunch.
