Roll up your sleeves for some earthy gaming

Remember your mama today! No, I’m not asking if you called your mother today (though that would be nice), I’m talking about our global mother Earth. Today is the 39th annual Earth Day , set aside in 1970 to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Planet where we work and play every day. Celebrated all across the globe, Earth Day is a day to stop and smell the roses, perhaps even plant one should you get so inspired. It’s also a Wednesday, so sometimes it’s hard to find time in the midst of everyday work, errands and chores to take a moment and appreciate gifts of nature. If you do find a second for a gaming break (you know you need one!), I invite you to join me is some good earthy games on Shockwave.

One of my favorites is Plant Tycoon, where you get to start with a handful of seeds and cultivate an empire by growing, letting your inner tycoon blossom. Garden Defense calls you to defend your virtual garden from pests in natural creative ways like wild lawn ornaments, and even bug-fighting plants! If you’re in the mood for a little country escape check out Ranch Rush where you get to experience life on the farm by planting crops, milking cows, gathering honey and much more to save the nursery from the clutches of big developers.  You’ll also win some tokens for your troubles, with a chance to win enough cash for a quite a few gifts of nature.

So remember our global Mama today when you play games. Who knows, perhaps you’ll have so much fun in the virtual world of gardening that you may get inspired to start a garden of your own. Happy Earth Day from Shockwave!
