SteamWorld Dig 2 (3DS): COMPLETED!
A while back I was lucky enough to win a copy of this from Nintendolife. I already had (and had completed) it on the Switch, but it’s a great game so playing it through a game was certainly no chore. Unsurprisingly, it’s the same game. But also unsurprisingly, it was awesome again. I don’t know if I’ll mop up all the collectibles like I did with the Switch version, but you never know!
Detective Pikachu (3DS): COMPLETED!
Just a brief post about this because I said a lot more on the ugvm Podcast, but since recording that I’ve completed it. The main thing to mention is that in the intro to the game, I thought I’d figured out what had happened to Tim’s dad. However, you never actually find out as the game ends with a sequel setup. It’s slightly disappointing, but only because I was expecting closure. The rest of the game was enjoyable, in a …
Fairune Blast (Switch): COMPLETED!
Well this was a bit different. As a reward for completing the three other Fairune games in the collection, this little shoot em up is unlocked. Taking its cue from the bosses at the end of the first two games, this is a full-on Pop’n TwinBee style vertical shooter, featuring enemies from the main series in formations, and miniature versions of the bosses as, er, bosses. It’s fun, but very short and easy. I mean, sure, it is only a …
Fairune Origin (Switch): COMPLETED!
I’m guessing here, but I think Fairune Origin is the original idea for a game that eventually became Fairune. It’s a very short, similar game with just 12 screens and a few puzzles which are vaguely recognisable as those in the “proper” Fairune. Your girl is taller and thinner, the baddies don’t seem to require you to level up to beat them, and it’s all over pretty quickly. It definitely feels like a working prototype, and, I suppose, if you …
Fairune 2 (Switch): COMPLETED!
Perhaps the easiest way of describing Fairune 2 is “Fairune only more”. More enemies, more puzzles, more areas, bigger maps, more items, more on-screen, more lore, more everything. It’s a lot longer too, as it took me six and a half hours to complete – compare that to two and a half for the first game. That all said, it’s pretty much the same idea. Bump into enemies to kill them, find items to open up areas of the map, …
Fairune (Switch): COMPLETED!
A few years ago, I picked this up cheaply on the 3DS and quite enjoyed it. This week, Fairune Collection, which included Fairune, it’s sequel, and two other Fairune related games, came out on the Switch. Since I’d passed up on Fairune 2 elsewhere (mainly through Too Many Games) I jumped at the chance. And decided to played the first game again. It looks a little silly on the Switch screen, with a huge amount of the area showing the …
SNK vs. Capcom: The Match of the Millennium (NGPC): COMPLETED!
I was sure I’d never completed this before, but as I got to the three “guards” just before the Geese/Bison double fight, I realised I had played it before. See. Not only that, but I chose Ken to play as this time too. Because of course I would. He’s Ken! Looking at my post from a couple of years ago though, it seems I really struggled in the final few battles last time. No such trouble this time around. Well, …
Rogue Aces (Switch): COMPLETED!
Well, the “Frontline Campaign” completed, at least. I’m not sure the other modes are completable? Anyway, I completed it. And good grief was it hard. It plays out as a grid of islands, each one like a miniature normal mode, only there are a fixed number of targets to take out. Once you’ve done that, you move onto taking over another island, heading from the bottom left of the map to the top right. As you do so, the enemy …
