Have you ever fancied having a go at the old circus knife-throwing? No. Neither had I, but having had a go at this game from Mousebreaker it is now a lot more tempting.
Not only can you choose whether to be a male or female knife-thrower, but you can choose which one of 21 celebrities is to be strapped to the revolving wheel to have knives chucked at them.
The candidates include Paris Hilton, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Britney Spears, George Bush and Tony Blair. After the novelty of deliberately sending blades into limbs, groins and foreheads wears off – which it does surprisingly quickly – you find yourself actually trying to miss the person and hit the targets for points, but the beauty of the game is that you don’t necessarily mind doing badly if you chose the right assistant.
I have been choosing George Bush, as the temptation to eviscerate him makes getting a high score a lot more challenging.
Top tip: tick the ‘extra blood’ box at startup.

Oh dear – I killed George W Bush – 38 times…how careless of me…

Once is just a slip-up. Twice is careless. 38 times is sheer public-spiritedness 🙂

Rob is very worried – I am proving to be quite good at crotch shots on old G.W.

“crotch shots” is not a phrase you really want to hear coming from your sister…
