Go medieval with a few knights
"Life Goes On" is a clever and highly enjoyable puzzle game that strikes an impeccable balance between dark and funny. The trinket at the end of every level might not be worth all the effort and sacrifice for the knights, but the crafty puzzles, catchy soundtrack and the particularly brilliant end credits sequence are more than enough reward themselves — for you and the king, at least. The knights would probably disagree, but "Inquisitor Jim Rooker the Fourth, Son of Jim" was impaled on spikes as soon as I pressed start, so it doesn't really matter what he thinks. $13 for PC/Mac; www.lifegoesongame.com
