Dungeon 6 has to be the hardest thing ever. The Wizzrobes were making me cry real actual tears. I died about 984759823745 more times, and progress was hampered somewhat by the fact that all of the baddies (aside from the three-headed dragon mid-boss) had come back to life overnight. Imagine my joy. Thankfully, I had a bit of luck, and made it to the dungeon boss – a crab spider thing with a giant eye. Guess what I had to …
A cute rocket firing, wheeled baddie thing to kill (who was easy), and onto another level of more cute stuff. I’ve been asked, “Doesn’t the cuteness in Hello Kitty Roller Rescue make you want to vomit your kidneys up?”. And to that person, I say: “Yes. Yes it does. Through my eyes.” There was a car park level, and I rescued a cute toy car thing. Had to find it some cute batteries, but soon it was smashing through walls …
More cuteness, and rescued more cute animals and unlocked more cute dresses for cute Kitty. Blew up a cute train using cute pineapples shot from cute pineapple cannons, and then rescued a cute monkey from the cute frozen food section of a cute supermarket. Cute blocks on cute skis tried to beat me up (in a cute way), but I defeated them with my new cute toy hammer, which beats the living cuteness out of their cute faces. Then I …
I bought a game in a pink box! Hurrah! And it’s so cute it makes you want to gouge your eyes out with a fork! BEST! Played for about half an hour, which was long enough to complete the first 4 or 5 missions. Rescued Kitty’s mother, her sister, Purin, a frog thing, and Lala. It’s all very easy so far. And cute. Vomity-cute at that. I’ve even unlocked new costumes for Kitty – a denim one (complete with denim …
Well, I’ve managed to wipe out many of the rooms full of Wizzrobes now, in Dungeon 6. They don’t seem to reappear if I don’t exit the dungeon, which is helpful. I did leave for a short while, however, and tried pushing things all over the place now I have my Power Bracelet. This resulted in finding a better sword – the Master Sword, I suspect – in the Graveyard. That helped rather a lot in the dungeon… Also in …
After the usual stuff, I took Chris for the longest walk currently possible, past some of his favourite urinating spots, and let him have a play with Poppi and Casey. Although he doesn’t like Casey. But he does like Poppi. He found a new toy – a rubber bone – on the walk too. At least he isn’t scared of that. Tested him on his tricks again, and he simply refuses to Beg now. He’ll do everything else, but I …
More of the same, basically. Walking and feeding as all that rubbish. I did throw the Bark Ball he’d found for him a bit, but he’s scared of it. He’s scared of pretty much everything, actually, not least the big stick I throw at his head. Entered him in the Open Class Frisbee Contest, where he came 3rd, but then on Expert he came first, getting me $350 in total. I then pushed him for Master, and although he managed …
Feed, water, wash, walk. Stupid animal. CAN’T YOU HUNT OR SOMETHING? Entered Chris in the Frisbee Contest, on Expert level, only for him to fail miserably. Why is there no “Put Down” option? And why can’t I take him to the vets to have him ‘fixed’? He was getting far too friendly with Poppi on his walk.
Gah. Cutesy Nintendo games are not supposed to be hard. Or irritating. So why should Yoshi be irritatingly hard? I’m sure it wasn’t when I was playing it a few weeks ago. But now, after finishing off Chapter 4, and then the Boss (who I had stupidly assumed was the end of game boss, but no), it was on to Chapter 5, which is hard. I hate these “Get 80 coins and finish in 60 seconds!!!!” missions, and the “new” …
WARP WHISTLE GET! With the added powaz of the Blue Ring, I managed to defeat all the Blue Dark Nuts, and get the Warp Whistle. This allowed me to kill the dungeon boss, and so I gained another heart and the fifth piece of Triforce. Then it was off to Dungeon 6, after playing with the Warp Whistle for a bit and finding it entirely random. And Dungeon 6 is too hard. There’s a screen with two orange Wizzrobes, two …
Seems I haven’t played this in a while, and, with Spider-Man 2, Advance Wars: Dual Strike, Pac ‘n Roll, and Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan all out of the way, I thought I’d best return to it. And it is still too hard. I managed, after several attempts, to get past the first lot of Blue Dark Nuts, only to find a second lot almost immediately afterwards. More, in fact. Spent ages regaining bombs and health, only to die again. And again. …
Blimey. I played this so much today, I got to the end. For the sake of brevity, and also to avoid spoilers, here is a condensed version of the events of the day: Mysterio called me to his “underground lair”, which was a funhouse. Killed deformed mirror versions of myself. Went to Octavius’ presentation, machine went loopy, his wife died, arms got fused to him. Dr. Octopus attacks the bank, I chase him off, he takes Aunt May, I chase …
More photos to take, and met up with Black Cat again (for the third time, I think now). She’s bloody irritating, as you have to chase her across the rooftops every time. After beating some crooks up, it was over to see Mary-Jane, and quickly off to the cinema. Chapter 7, and Quentin Beck challenged Spider-Man to a duel-of-sorts, which was much like the TV programme Gladiators. Firstly, I had to catch criminals and throw them into holes, then I …
First task in this chapter was to take some photos from assorted areas of the city. For no real reason, it seemed. Then, it was time to defeat Rhino. This was pretty easy, but involved dodging and countering his attacks rather than just hitting him. After that, it was off to Octavius’ lab for a quick visit. Spent a while afterwards doing hero-type-stuff to get Hero Points, so as to advance to the next chapter – Chapter 6.
