Let’s win some cool stuff!

by Amber on June 15th, 2007

Winning cool stuff is always a goal in ones life, isn’t it? I mean, we gamble, because we might win money, which is cool. Or we might call the radio station to win some tickets to see your favorite Boy Band in concert… or not. I mean, it’s totally up to you. Or maybe you try to win the World Cup, because you’ll get a million dollar paycheck next year if you do. I mean, winning is awesome.

Well, there is a competition out there that you might just want to try to win. And the prizes? Well, they just can’t be beat if you’re an adventure gaming fan. The International House of Mojo is putting on a contest of their very own, my friends, and winning is pretty easy. Alls you gots to do is create some fan-related item, such as a webpage, some art work, create a costume or pretty much anything cool based on the following games: A Vampyre Story, Bone or Sam & Max. I mean, that can’t be too tough, can it? \

It sounds so easy, I bet I could win with this original piece of FanArt:

No one best be stealin’ this master piece…


I’m sure you’re asking what’s in it for you. Well, if you win the contest, you will receive the following:

  • Sam & Max and Bone promotional cards, given out at GDC, as well as by Emily in the Telltale offices.
  • CD box copy of Bone: The Great Cow Race, signed by six people who worked on the game, including singer song-writer, Dave Grossman.
  • A Vampyre Story concept art, signed by Bill Tiller. This was printed out on a laser printer, and it is very good quality. When I asked Bill to sign it he said “Oho! This is concept art for the sequel, when Mona has to wear a hat all the time.”
  • LucasArts recruiting card. Fool all your friends by making them think you’re a LucasArts recruiter!

If you have lots of different ideas send them in, as The International House of Mojo would love to see it all. Send in all your works of art into gabez @ mixnmojo dot com before Sunday July 1st.

    Thanks for the publicity - and I’m sure you could win with that peice of fan-art! So far no-one has sent anything in, apart from Doug Tabacco, and he doesn’t count.

    Incidentally, I like reading your blog! It’s always nice to see another adventure game fan on the ‘net.

    No point in entering then… Such a wildly stylized primitif piece of modern art just can’t lose!

    I think it’ll win because Max looks Chinese… I mean, it’s so new and different!

    Gabez - No problemo for the publicity… you guys get your fair share here on this blog, because your site is pretty awesome. I’ve been going to it for years and have always enjoyed it… Keep it up!
