Lately we have been playing a card game called Hearthstone.

It runs on newer iPads and Windows. We were able to get it to play gloriously in Linux using PlayOnLinux and some minor tweaking. (We prefer to play on our iPad Air because of the touch interface.)

This game can be played totally for free even though it is one of those "in-app-purchase" type games. In fact, a lot of people reach "Legend" status without ever spending a dime.

Basic math skills really help when playing this game!

Here are two useful links:

And one funny link once you begin to understand the game:

It is kind of scary. I had considered moving steam to another folder. Glad I didn't!

Remarkably easy to do, as the article describes. I've run into it, I imagine it's fairly common.
