So you got that degree in accounting instead one of those "fun" fields and now people call you a bean counter and think you're boring. At least until tax time. Need a way to get rid of that pent-up frustration without going postal or picking up a poison pen? We've got a game for you.

Actually you don't have to be an accountant to enjoy Bean Counter the game. This is sort of like a Ninja fighting game except that you are a British accountant out for a stroll in the fog when you are suddenly accosted by a gang of rabid beans. That's right...beans. You must defend yourself with your light saber (actually it's your umbrella.) Nobody can wield an umbrella with more deadly skill than a British accountant.

Using only the arrow keys on your keyboard you have a combination of deadly slashing and stabbing moves. and you need all of your skills to defend against the onslaught of beans, some of which die nicely but others have a nasty way of coming back from the dead. What are fighting for? Why money of course! And where there's money there are lawyers. so make sure you keep their hands from your hard fought cash.

We love this game because it take the idea of a fighting game in a new, fun direction. Also the game controls allow a variety of cool moves, while only using the arrow keys. other fighting games should adopt these controls. After playing this game you'll never think of accountants being boring again.
