Vintage Vinyl Music Games June 19, 2007 - by Ian Bogost
Among the more detailed of these games and demos is a Thompson Twins graphical adventure game "you guide the Thompson Twins around a land of beaches and caves." The game has even been archived for download or online play. There are a lot more examples. We could consider these advergames, given the "bonus" of getting the game when you buy the album, or we could consider them adaptations, even though few of them seem to deal directly with the themes of the albums/songs.
