Alright folks, here's the deal. I dig curling, like, alot. Way more than anyone from America should. Most of us like football, I like curling. It's probably not a big surprise that I don't get to enjoy my beloved game in the digital format too often. I've even imported Japanese games to get my curling fix. So while hesitant about the "pig" part of Pig Curling, I was more than willing to deal with it if it meant touch screen sweeping goodness. Ultimately though, I came away crushed and disappointed.
I feel like a hipster saying this, but as an American, I was into the Canadian past time of curling way before it was cool a couple of winter Olympics ago. After routinely coming home late from my old job I would flip channels on the TV and come across this weird thing at 3 o'clock in the morning where people were brushing the ice and shouting while a big stone slowly made its way to a target at the other end. It was like some Alaskan version of shuffle board, and needless to say, I was completely hooked.
