NoGlobal - New PDF Game from daVinci
Italian publisher daVinci Editrice has a new game in PDF format from Luigi Ferrini called NoGlobal. NoGlobal is for 2-5 players, and each player takes on a different role—President, policeman, demonstrator, or violent protestor—and each role has a different win condition: the President wants to visit three monuments in town, the violent protestor has to throw a tart at the President, and so on.
NoGlobal is available for download through Arima.it. The price is normally €3, but downloading is free through June 10th.

I tried downloading it, but it wanted to charge me. How do I get to it? -- Chris Posted by Chris Sjoholm on Jun 9, 2007 at 07:45 PM | #

Strange—I downloaded the PDF about 8am EDT, and the €2.99 price for NoGlobal had a slash through it at the time with a €0.00 price in red next to it. I’ve asked daVinci about it since the news item said it would be gratis through the weekend in honor of President Bush’s visit to Rome. Posted by W. Eric Martin on Jun 9, 2007 at 09:30 PM | #

The price tag today is bad news, though, and it’s a problem on Arima’s side - I can do nothing to fix it without their help.
Sorry about that! Posted by Silvano Sorrentino on Jun 10, 2007 at 02:21 AM | #

"it would be gratis through the weekend in honor of President Bush’s visit to Rome.” Given Bush’s reception, I’m surprised that daVinci didn’t *double* the price in honor of his visit. :-) I downloaded - and the entire document was in Italian. Is there an English edition that I missed? Posted by Jonathan Degann on Jun 10, 2007 at 05:02 PM | #

You get a free game, then have the nerve to complain that it’s in Italian?! Next time daVinci will double the price! Silvano at daVinci says that if someone on the Geek doesn’t produce an English translation in a reasonable amount of time, daVinci will create one of its own. Posted by W.

Now I get it! Its low price (free) was directed at *Italians* as a sort of compensation for having to put up with our President. Posted by Jonathan Degann on Jun 10, 2007 at 06:57 PM | #
