  • Yeah.. figured.. but it's a little annoying is all - people might get the wrong impression of the game. Oh well.

  • Smurfs (it was the only video game my parents would let me play as a little kid, fearing stuff like Spyro was too violent)

    Edit: Also, any of the educational games I played as a kid... I'm not sure if those count though :p

  • For nonviolence, any of the time management games you can download do it for me (Diner Dash, et al). But I think a favorite of those has to be the Chocolatier series....

  • There are LOTS of non-violent games. Puzzle games.
    Non-violent games that include a player-character.. well that's a little different.There's... uhh... Glitch? No, wait- that's already been discussed - there's pig-nibbling and meat eating. Damn. Glitch is so violent!

  • To finish this thread off.....many years ago I trained as a computer programmer (Pascal - whats that i hear you young stripplings cry!). As this was at college, I wrote a small programme that made a green dot appear at random points on the screen. I convinced a student that there was a college contest running that involved someone shouting out the name of a fruit when the dot appeared on the screen......However there was no microphone and I will never forget the sight of this rather unpleasent kid screaming "STRAWBERRY" at a screen desperate to win...........ah happy days...
