Garden of Dreams: Contemplative Games

This was posted as a poll in the Lounge, and as far as I know, I was the only one to reply, suggesting it be discussed here ;)

So, here it is: http://www.psiarcade.com/garden

I must say that I suck at the games. They rely on intuition, precognition and mental 'power' over the items in the game. They're basically all little games but still require a fair amount of skill, at least with regards to the things we discuss here. Give it a try and see what you think :)

1. That was interesting!

I was better at some things than others.

Thanks for sharing it! :)

2. I was good at the keys. First try on first three. 2nd on 4th.

I would've gotten 3 for 3 on the tiles but I ignored my intuition. Did poorly on the butterfly, though.

3. I totally sucked at that

oh well.
I wonder what it was really about.

4. As I understood the introduction text

it's all about the Institute of Noetic Sciences doing an ongoing study of 'psi'.

I sucked at it, too, especially that dammed butterfly!

5. OMG I smell time suck

I have a sneaking suspicion I'm going to be going back to that site repeatedly!

I kicked ASS with the keys...as long as I didn't think AT ALL and just grabbed the first key that caught my eye. Rearranging the squares was easy to do too. But finding the fairies? Huh. And don't get me started on that butterfly! The split second I even THOUGHT about what I was doing and that little phker would start backing up... :banghead:

6. It's a great tool though, isn't it? nt

7. Totally!

I'm going to become an addict. I can feel it... :D

8. Not me!!

I've asked the Universe to trade my sixth sense, for my sense of taste back!!! LOL Think I'll get an answer? Can't blame me for trying. I'm up late and I'm tired, and now we have another tornado watch for tonight until 1 AM. Skeered to go to bed as I may end up in OZ in my trailer like Dorothy. I want to wake up still in "Kansas"!

9. I didn't do well on any of them.

That one with the stones on the second try started going backward from where I wanted it to go! I had to think of it going the opposite way to get it to go the right way :crazy:

Then again, I had some vodka a couple of hours ago, so that might have affected things :P
