Death Row

No, it's not the subject I'm aiming at. This little game I found over at Fizzy.com is one that I find very interesting. Mainly, it's a tamagotchi-like game, but instead of a virtual pet, you are now taking care of a death row inmate who has only 14 days to either reform enough to recieve a pardon or fry in the electric chair. The gist of it, however, is this. He's actually a wrongly incarcerated prisoner who was put there under a false allegation of a terrorist bombing.

When you first see this guy, you'll notice immediately at the top right hand corner of the screen that he is not doing so well. His health is in the toilet, he's despressed and has lost everything except for his maintained innocence.

Here's where you come into play. Your job is to nurse him back to health, build up his mood, earn his respect and revitalize his work ethic all while collecting eight pieces of evidence and emailing them to the governor (once you get the computer). Or, you could be completely convinced that he did it and just leave him there to rot. Either way, the choice is yours.

Here's where to go. Have fun!

I remember playing this a while ago. It's fun and can take up quite a bit of time.
