Download or read book Death Plays Solitaire written by R. L. Goldman and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death Plays Solitaire, first published in 1939, opens with newspaper reporter Rufus Reed’s assignment to cover the electrocution of Dan Hillyard, a bank robber and murderer of a policeman. It closes with Reed’s return to the Death House on a similar assignment. Between these events is a circuitous trail beset with excitement and adventure, involving among others—Jackson Toliver, a noted criminal lawyer who plays his first and last game of solitaire with a mysterious deck of cards; Edna Toliver, his neglected and neurotic wife; Franklin Toliver and William Smedley, junior members of the law firm; Lucy Curtis, an attractive blonde secretary, adept in the art of “two-timing”; Ruby, the widow and former gun moll of the late Dan Hillyard; Dick Lucas, Hillyard’s former partner in crime and a fugitive from justice. Death Plays Solitaire provides adventures and problems perfectly adapted to Rufus Reed’s impetuous nature and Asaph’s Clume’s analytical mind. The story moves along at a breath-taking pace, with never a letdown between first page and last, but its plausibility, lifelike characters, and delightful humor make it something more than a mere thriller.

Download or read book A Casual Revolution written by Jesper Juul and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-02-10 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How casual games like Guitar Hero, Bejeweled, and those for Nintendo Wii are expanding the audience for video games. We used to think that video games were mostly for young men, but with the success of the Nintendo Wii, and the proliferation of games in browsers, cell phone games, and social games video games changed changed fundamentally in the years from 2000 to 2010. These new casual games are now played by men and women, young and old. Players need not possess an intimate knowledge of video game history or devote weeks or months to play. At the same time, many players of casual games show a dedication and skill that is anything but casual. In A Casual Revolution, Jesper Juul describes this as a reinvention of video games, and of our image of video game players, and explores what this tells us about the players, the games, and their interaction. With this reinvention of video games, the game industry reconnects with a general audience. Many of today's casual game players once enjoyed Pac-Man, Tetris, and other early games, only to drop out when video games became more time-consuming and complex. Juul shows that it is only by understanding what a game requires of players, what players bring to a game, how the game industry works, and how video games have developed historically that we can understand what makes video games fun and why we choose to play (or not to play) them. Important Notice: The digital edition of this book is missing some of the images found in the physical edition.
