Download/HomepageFirst off, they call Runes a game. I disagree, it might be entertaining but I wouldn't class it as a game.
The runic alphabet, one of the oldest writings known, is graphically very simple. It consists of 24 characters composed of straight lines that break and cross without any curves.
The whole alphabet-futhark-is organized in three groups, three aet:
First aet: fehu [f] uruz [u], thurisaz [th], ansuz [a], raido [r], kenaz [k], gebo [g], wunja [w]
Second aet: hagalaz [h], nauthiz [n], isa [i], jera [j], eithwaz [ei], perth [p], algiz [x, z], sowulo [s]
Third aet: teiwaz [t], berkana [b], ehwaz [e], mannaz [m], laguz [l], inguz [ng], dagaz [d], othila [o]
I have no idea what all the above means, but I thought you might find it interesting, wonder why so many 'zees' Maybe all them zees are what does it, huh?
You can ask you questions of either Norn, who answers just yes or no questions; or you can ask Mimir's Head, who answers questions based on "What If". Once you decide who to answer, check the correct box for your sex, [no that's not how often!] and shuffle the Runes. Stop the shuffle whenever you want. Then you hold the curser over each Runic tile and it will tell you all about it.
While I could see it being loads of fun at a party, I couldn't see someone running it every day; but, hey, if that's your trip don't let me rain on your parade. Don't misunderstand, I don't mean to sound like I'm making fun of it.
