Zenses Giveaway Roundup

Friday, December 26th, 2008

Someone at The Game Factory must have been reaching out to the mommy bloggers, because there are quite a few Zenses giveaways going on right now. I’ve already posted a couple of them, but here are some more giving away one or both games. Please check out the sites for full details on how to enter (It usually involves commenting on the blog or promoting it in some way). You can also hear moms’ takes on the $29.99 puzzle game that’s targeted to women over 25. Zenses, released in late October 2008, is billed as “active relaxation,” with games sold with either a Rainforest and Ocean theme. (Currently, Zenses: Ocean Edition or the Rainforest edition is $27.99 at Amazon.) They’re designed to be played for a few minutes or hours, depending on your time and inclination. The games feature “ambient soundscapes” that are also available as an MP3 soundtrack for free download on the Game Factory Web site.
