And quickly, too. It seems that reading the Help that comes with the board game thing actually helps, as it tells you that a fight that results in a draw means the opposing side can’t move. With this, I used The Cheat to prevent Strong Mad from moving, Homsar to ground Strong Sad, Coach Z to distract Homestar, and The Poopsmith to hide The King of Town every move. In 9 moves, I’d won both the battle, and the game. …
Just one battle played (and won) today. I went back to the only place on the map I can currently reach where random battles can occur, in the hope I could play and bump up my stats a bit. Killed all the baddies bar one, and got him stuck in a corner while I hit him with as many non-HP-reducing attacks and spells as I could, until he decided to attack me, and I countered, killing him. Sadly, nobody went …
Played this loads today. I’ve managed to rank up to level 83 or 84, around 8 levels or so. Did this mainly through master romancing Kittyflosses, getting Buzzenges resident, converting some sours (Cocodile, Macaraccoon, Lemmoning), sending loads of things off to parties, and catching a few Pinarctic pinata, like the Pengum. Oh, and other species were master romanced too – Pretztails, Pienas, and some others. Now I just need to figure out what other stuff I need to feed to …
OK, so I managed to convince both Pompom and Homsar to join my country, leaving Homestar and Strong Mad. Strong Mad had me puzzled for ages, until I realised what to do with my sword, and then he gave me something I could use to rig the Draft Wheel making Coach Z join the Homestarmy. So, with the army assembled and all the countries joined as one, I became King of Town! Only now I don’t want to be any …
Grrr! I got to Concrete Man (after finally figuring out how to defeat the Evil Elephants without dying), but he’s too hard. Neither of the boss weapons I have are effective against him, and it’s all to easy for him to turn me to stone, then jump on my head, then shoulder-charge me, wiping out half my energy in one go. Gah.
Hurrah! I convinced both The Cheat and Strong Sad to join my country! Turns out all The Cheat needed was pilot’s badge, and then he gave me his lighter, which I used to torch everything Strong Sad owned, pretty much. Now I’m stuck again, having no idea how to impress Pompom, or how to converse with Homsar.
Got back into this again a bit this evening. I master romanced arocknids and rashberries, as well as send lots of things off to parties. Still having problems getting Buzzenges or Kittyflosses to eat my Sparrowmints. They’re just not interested! Why?
Yes, I downloaded Episode 2. After Episode 1, I couldn’t just leave it, could I? No, of course not. The plot of this one is that everyone in town has set up their own country. It seems that I have to get them all to become part of Strong Bad’s empire – Strong Badia. I’m yet to manage this though, having not persuaded anyone to join. It’s still funny though!
I beat another boss! After $hlmun attempts at Tornado Man’s level, I finally got to the boss. Then promptly lost all bar one of my lives, before managing to beat him on my final life with just two bars of energy left. Phew! Oh, and Galaxy Man’s weapon on him is more than useless.
Um, yes. I would say “already”, but it did take about 5 hours. It’s just I’ve played it a lot. And excellent it was too. I finally figured out how to beat Pompom, and the section in the castle was all sorts of amaze. And the snake game is fantastic in its crapness.
I love point and click adventures, and I had a load of spare Wii points from when I bought Mega Man 9. So it was only a matter of time before I bought SBCG4AP (as the game refers to itself as). And? It is amazing. Very few games are genuinely funny, and fewer still are actually hilarious, but this? This is real actual side splittingly funny. I was aware of Strong Bad (the web “thing”), but knew very little about …
That’s 5 levels down now (and another couple of “secret” ones). I still can’t get over how much fun this is to play. There have been a couple of slightly challenging bits so far, but even when you fail a challenge you’re not punished – you just have to start them again, only anything you’ve already done is saved: e.g. You have to paint 20 buildings, you paint 19, then run out of time. You restart and 19 are still …
Amazing! An absolutely amazing game! Fun to play, original, funny and excellent! I’ve completed the first three levels, and one of the “secret” levels so far, and the difficulty ramping is perfect so far. It’s still easy, but it’s certainly getting trickier. I’ve spent ages longer on each level than necessary, simply because it’s so much fun to colour everything in. It’s almost a shame to go through the exit at the end of each level.
So! Very! Hard! I know Mega Man games are supposed to be hard, but this? This is impossible. Maybe. I did, after many, many attempts, manage to beat Galaxy Man. Actually beating him wasn’t an issue – I did it first attempt. No, the difficulty was getting to him in the first place. Hard? Like a diamond.
