Golden Axe (Switch): COMPLETED!
Golden Axe is not a good game. It’s a clunky, short, repetitive arcade game with some stupid AI and just isn’t fun. Take this “trick” for example, where you beat baddies by them jumping to their doom: Or this easy way to fight one or two baddies: Stupid. But I completed it anyway.
The Mystery Of Woolley Mountain (Switch): COMPLETED!
I’d never heard of this point-and-click adventure game but it seems it was a Kickstarter project a while back. Looking at the credits, now I’ve finished it, there are a number of high profile backers and a fair few people I know or follow on Twitter, so I’m surprised I’d not seen it mentioned before now. Anyway, the lovely @IndieGamerChick gave me a copy via her IndieSelect initiative earlier in the week so here’s my Contactually Obliged Comments. I mean, …
ToeJam & Earl: Panic on Funkotron (Switch): COMPLETED!

The Story of Thor (Switch): COMPLETED!
Which Norse god bit his tongue? Thor. Note: the game is not about Norse gods.
Bonanza Bros (Switch): COMPLETED!
I don’t think I’ve ever completed this before. But now I have. It was actually a lot easier than I remember. Although there’s a level timer, the trick is to take your time and don’t panic. It’s only on the final level I came close to running out of time!
