Game of the Day - 98 Cents (plus one free)

Amazon's Video Game of the Day deal today is a game download, Tradewinds 2, for 98 cents. It's a cute game, so far, where you travel between ports, buying and selling trade goods (with prices changing at ports depending on the season) and fighting off pirates. I quickly played thru the 30 minute trial period and promptly went back to Amazon and purchased the full version.

This game also qualifies as a purchase for the Buy One, Get One Free offer that Amazon is currently running and I've already received the email from Amazon telling me to choose one of the games from that offer to download for free (but I'll try each of them first, to make sure they work on my computer; I've run into some that won't and others that were just unplayable for me, so the 30 minute trial period is something I always take advantage of).
