Corpse Craft

Corpse Craft is a flash game -- a puzzle/ strategy hybrid that's one part Same Game and one part Tower defense and one part Edward Gorey. Decent art, sound, story and gameplay.

Had to re-navigate from games menu, the deep link didn't work. Cool artwork, but the focus on the puzzle means I missed most of it.

With excitement beating in my breast (how often do I have the chance to be play a "decent" game?!) I clicked, but it doesn't load.

Thanks, Bro Caine. It is indeed decent. I definitely like the idea of using one game to control another. But maybe have it be turn based so I can watch them both?

Fun game, but I wish that it didn't randomly reload the page, making me lose the progress through the current level.

I played this awhile ago. It's really hard, at least for me, to play Bejeweled and Starcraft at the same time, no matter how much the chrome made me want to like it.

Here's a link that should work for the game. (YMMV)

Alternate link.

Oh, thank you both. I'm sorry; I double checked the link, but I guess it worked since I already navigated in.

Hmmm...yeah, neat game, but too complicated. Too much going on.

I played this before. It's a lot of fun and it gets really hard in the later levels.

Many, I'm failing already at the ladyfinger level, but I'm enjoying it very much.

Played this a while back when it featured on Jay is Games. It gets very difficult towards the end there.

Tip: Try to collect materials when they're only 5 or 6 squares in a cluster. You gain an exponential amount of material between 3 and 6 squares, but it's linear after that.

Also, go crazy with the Handymen in later levels. They can take out large units (you'll see what I mean) and provide cover for your ladyfingers. That way you can hoarde materials for the girls or two or three large units of your own. Adding a Bloodlust and Vigour Mortis to a swarm of streetwalkers is a beautiful thing.

You owe me two hours of my life back, boo.

Wow, thanks, this is addictive! I'm figuring out how to use my infusers for maximum damage now.
