Walk 50 Meters in His Shoes

We and our Austrian software partners are proud to announce the latest in our series of Fraters Libertas living history virtual reality games. It's Wagenschenke! Which, loosely translated, means "Help the Atomizer walk home from Al's Bar". Yes, it's a simulation of our own Atomizer's nightly ritual from his carefree bachelor days in the early to mid to late 1990's.

Follow the link, let it load, click on the Start sign and with your counterbalancing mouse, help guide his woozy path homeward. Or, if your manual dexterity is lacking, watch him do a face plant on the sidewalk and promptly pass out. Either way you're learning about history and having fun, which makes everyone a winner. Enjoy.

THE ELDER ADDS: They've really done their homework to make this simulation as authentic as possible, right down to Atomizer sucking his thumb after passing out. You almost feel as if you're really there.
