Played Grail

I was a big fan of Sokpop's previous games - they used to release a very small game every single month. Some of them, like Stacklands, ended up becoming full-sized titles. Their output was proof, I suppose, that you can constantly make loads of games on a fast schedule without AI if you are disciplined about reusing your resources.
