"Progress Quest is a next generation computer role-playing game. Gamers who have played modern online role-playing games, or almost any computer role-playing game, or who have at any time installed or upgraded their operating system, will find themselves incredibly comfortable with Progress Quest's very familiar gameplay. Progress Quest follows reverently in the footsteps of recent smash hit online worlds, but is careful to streamline the more tedious aspects of those offerings. Players will still have the satisfaction of building their character from a ninety-pound level 1 teenager, to an incredibly puissant, magically imbued warrior, well able to snuff out the lives of a barnload of bugbears without need of so much as a lunch break. Yet, gone are the tedious micromanagement and other frustrations common to that older generation of RPG's."

Controversial I might say. For me it is a very smart parody on RPG games in general by taking "stats system" to the ultimate absurd.

How peculiar. How do you die? It says if try fighting a monster way stronger than you you'll probably die, but there's no way to stop it. And how do you win? Assuming there is an actual "goal"...

The goal is quite simple: reach 99 level. Good luck in that.

Hmmmm if i had a google homepage it might be quite cool otherwise it's just silly! Nice addition though, shame there wasn't a little bit of interaction, even if it was just choosing options and pressing space.
e.g.
1. Carry on watching the game.
2. Go to bed.
3. Close and Delete the game.
4. Throw your computer out of the window and jump after it.
