In pitch meetings like the one for Roman Sands, Serenity Forge often asks developers a telling question: Imagine if the game being built became the most popular game overnight; what kind of effect would it have on society?


giving people a simple few moments of fun, without trying to impose deeper meaning, is a worthy service and makes the world a better place enough.

im not saying these folks shouldn't express whatever they wish via their games or whatever. im saying that simple things like "tetris" are valid too.
