Am posting this because I haven't been able to download and play this game. Looks to be an interesting game though.

It's a JAR file so you may need to have a Java Runtime Environment installed to get your computer to run it. Check out https://java.com/en/download/ in case you're missing that.

I didn't say I couldn't download it I said I couldn't download and PLAY, with emphasis on PLAY.

How you wrote it in the first post, it said you couldn't do both.

While not much on the graphics side, love the gameplay and setting for this game!

Now that I have been able to play it and reached level 3 I find it to be be too repetitive. Win or lose you end up with the exact same dialogue for the girl you are fighting. Graphics are very simple. I do like the setting and concept of Night Games though. Interesting new way to experience college although I am not sure what the impact on your studies would be, probably not good.

You have said exactly what I have been thinking, might be fun at first but when mid terms come around, not to say anything about finials I would be in trouble. but the game comcept is very good. [img]images/icones/icon7.gif[/img]

Yeah, it's very grindy in terms of unlocking new content. The battles themselves are kind of unique each time, but facing the same girl multiple times each night and then again the next night and so on leads to so much of the same dialogue being shown. It seems like you have to endure this for a bit before you open up new stuff during the day and new girls joining. The game doesn't really do a good job explaining the item system, either, so you kind of have to rely on trial and error when making traps and buying items. I'm still not really sure what the Phone item is for.

I'm having problems too. Downloading and unzipping are easy, can't figure out how to run it, though.

The phone has multiple uses, and at least one can be used to lure people into a room where you've set a trap. I don't really understand the others though.

As it states on the game download page (http://www.silverbardgames.com/?page_id=9);
"The game requires JRE 1.6 or newer. You can get it for free on Oracle’s website."

I have the newest JRE. I'm talking about a physical exe file to start the game. All I get are folders with nothing to start the program.

Ah, bit of a misconception there. JARs aren't just archives. This is an executable JAR, so it should be telling your JRE what to do when you open it (via the manifest). You aren't going to find any executable. Have you only been opening the JAR as an archive, or have you tried to just run it yet? If it's defaulting to being opened as an archive you may just have to right-click on the JAR, select Open With, and then browse to Java Platform SE Binary (if it doesn't show as a choice).
