As you may have seen last week, social games specialist Zattikka has just announced The Ministry of Silly games, a Facebook virtual world based around the surreal comedy genius of Monty Python. Set to launch early next year, it will include eight free mini-games including King Arthur's Knight Fight, a slice-'em-up against such foes as the Black Knight and the killer rabbit, and Gillaxian – a tribute to the classic arcade shooter Galaxian, done in the animated style of Terry Gilliam.
To give you a taster, we've been provided with one of the games, Camelot Smashalot, an Angry Birds-style physics puzzler in which you catapult livestock, Holy Hand Grenades and other idiotic projectiles at a French castle. If you've ever wanted to re-enact that classic scene from Monty Python and The Holy Grail, rather than just drunkenly recite John Cleese's insults, here's your chance.
