Hot out of my inbox is news from JB (creator of the Jack French games) of the start of his new point'n'click game series, "Agent Scarecrow". Judging by the links on the page - not all active yet - there are going to be three chapters in total, but for now just Chapter 1 - The Birth Of Scarecrow is a available to play. And I gather from the, frustratingly "to be continued" style, end of this episode (I couldn't resist playing thru to the end before I posted) there will be two versions of Chapter 2 when it comes out, depending upon who you decide to call in the final sequence of this chapter, which I guess means we will all be playing thru this one at least twice :) Anyway over to JB for his description of the game:
