Webcam Games starts now: turn your Webcam on!

When a couple of months ago I bought my new laptop computer, it also included an incorporated webcam on the top. At first I thought: “Ok, I will use it sometimes when calling my girlfriend, or to make some stupid videos / pictures. Just a piece of useless modern technology to make the price of the PC higher…”

But in the computer’s package I found a “mysterious” cd, called Webcam applications, which sounded pretty interesting, so I tried it. It was a collection of applications to show the potentialities and possible usage of a computer webcam. Among other stuff, there were also some games to be played just with the use of the webcam… and I felt in love.

After that, I search for many other webcam games on the Internet, and I found out that there is a really great community of developers and, of course, players, interested in this innovative gaming style.

After some time spent playing and looking for information about this world, I decided to start this Blog as a way to collect and review all good games that can be found on the internet, that can be played through a webcam device, and also to report all the news about this growing community.

Maybe you have noticed, I am not an English mother tongue speaker (actually I’m Italian…), but I will try to do my best to make everything understandable for you.

Enough words, and let’s begin… may the webcam be with you!
