The Great Gatsby: The Game

I don't play video games. Very often. But...but...but. If you grew up in the town that was being invaded from outer space, if your home town was the one being destroyed, if you had spent your childhood as a frog, leaping across a river full of logs and crocodiles - well, you would be excited too.

Which brings us to this: The Great Gatsby video game.

It's the sort of simple, old school, Nintendo style game that is totally addictive. The people who posted it claim it's based on a game they found at a yard sale. Who knows its true origin, and honestly, who cares?

And it's set in West Egg.
