The other monks won't tell you this, but I'm going to be honest with you -- you're exactly RIGHT!  There have never been any complicated games ever written for Perl, and there never will be, because you just can't write complicated games in Perl.

There's a lot of high-falutin' science behind the reason for this, but nobody who programs in Perl will ever understand any of it.  However, I can tell you this, Perl is written in this very simple language called "C", and "C" gets compiled (whatever that means) to something called "assembly language", and believe me, NOBODY writes ANYTHING in "assembly language", especially complicated games!

Oh, sure, you can write very, very simple games in Perl, but nothing with the huge, rocket-science type complexity that you're looking for.  That's why we're all hemming and hawing, and giving you links to links to links, because nobody wants to tell you the shameful truth:  Perl can't be used to write complicated games!

I didn't want to admit it, but your words were dead accurate, we do have low opinions about ourselves, and very little self value at all.  But can you blame us?  All we know how to program in is Perl, which isn't even complicated!

If you want really powerful, intricate, complicated games, you're going to have switch over to Java or COBOL.  And I, for one, am too insecure to even *think* about programming in those languages ... ain't gonna happen!

So please look to another language for your complicated games.  As I said above, both Java and COBOL would be great choices.  There are no complicated Perl games written ever, so I can't give you any link, but they can be made.  Glad to be of service.  "Bey".

There, I've said it, and I feel better. :)
