Timewaster: Super Bride and Groom

Laura Pieroni on Tuesday, Jun. 21st

I think I just saw your productivity dip a little lower today, with the release of Super Bride and Groom. Thought your wedding day was tough? Super Bride and Groom is the story of one couple whose wedding was interrupted by a mysterious Mister X who takes the wedding party and scatters them around the world.

The game uses Super Nintendo graphics, and familiar game play mechanics (arrow buttons and space bar), to tell the story of one couple’s wedding day. One of the novelties in the game is the fact that it is supported by in-game advertising, large billboard like spaces inside the game world. As their ad-space hasn’t been filled, it has yet to be determined whether or not the ads will be distracting to the sweetness of play.

But how can I complain when the game is free! Super Bride and Groom isn’t anything terribly new in the world of online games, but the story and novelty are enough to hold the users attention, although watch the clock time tends to slip away as you try and save the wedding party.

Mean Jelly Bean, a start-up out of  Charlotte, NC released Super Bride and Groom.

I first encountered Sifteo Cubes back at IndieCade last October, and spent some time playing around with the little blocks which I first mistook for iPod Nanos.
