Life in the Dorms—the madcap new adventure game about how to survive in the utterly horrifying world of university housing—has been out for a few months now, and the critics are raving:

"A great point-and-click adventure." – Signed In

"A storyline with genuine humor." – Writings of Mass Destruction

"Who knew trying to outsmart a bear would be so fun?" – XCLANN

"I dare you not to crack a smile at all the odd characters and Dack’s increasingly strange musings on life." – Xboxer 360

"At every other turn in this game, something outrageously absurd is happening. … it takes a simple situation, pushes it to the extreme, and then puts a completely twist-ending on the punchline." – Adventure Lantern

Have you picked up your copy yet? It's only a dollar; you've got nothing to lose—except the hours you'll spend pointing-and-clicking along with Dack, trying to find love, friendship, and ramen noodles in a world that has…well, a lot of it, actually. Check us out on Xbox Live today!

Review copies are still available for members of the press; if you're interested, just drop an e-mail to paul@momentgames.com.

It's finally here. Two years in the making. Two dudes in the making. (Plus some other dudes in the art-ing and music-ing and testing.) Life in the Dorms: the adventure game by Moment Games all about love, friendship, and ramen noodles.

Life in the Dorms was released today on Xbox Live Indie Games. And it only costs one buck (for the next 7 days)!

People on Twitter are already raving about it!

"I love life in the dorms", said @GWPeterK, who…may have actually been talking about her own dorm, but we'll take it.

"So now I am a hyena???- life in the dorms..", said @Weekday88, who should probably seek medical attention.

"Life in the Dorms will be a life experience on par with getting married, having your first child, and writing your very first Tweet", said @colachief, who is technically the game's lead writer and designer.

Now Available on Xbox Live Indie Games!

Thanks to everyone for participating in our first-ever "Get Your Name in the Game" contest for Life in the Dorms! (Man, I wish I'd thought of that name before the contest ended.) The Tweets are in, and a winner is: @TheLiztress. How will we work her Twitter name into Life in the Dorms, and exactly what connection will it have to the 19th-centry philosopher Nietzsche? You'll have to play the game to find out!

Progress continues on Life in the Dorms, the adventure game about a boy whose roommate is (might be) a serial killer, whose R.A. is (might be) in love with him, and whose only friend for miles is his pet water turtle. Our script is 100% complete and nearly 100% implemented; now, we're focusing more on the artwork, the music, the playtesting and fine-tuning, and—most importantly—the hype.

And speaking of which! We're pleased to announce today that we're starting a new contest for Life in the Dorms, wherein the winner gets his or her own Twitter username added to the game's script! To enter, all you have to do is follow @momentgames on Twitter. That's it. Two weeks from now, we'll pick a winner at random from our list of followers, and that individual will immediately gain thousands of new followers of their own, as well as become more attractive to members of the opposite sex.

…Well, what are you waiting for? Don't you want to be that guy who can say "I was into Life in the Dorms before it won Game of the Year from all those websites"? This is your chance! Follow @momentgames now to win.
