A local seller surprisingly got a japanese special edition of the recent Switch port. It wasn't expensive and I couldn't resist.

Its beautiful. A lot better than the Límited Run one.

I opened a cage, a parrot got out, it screamed "I'll kill you" at me and I died, because apparently I'm very obedient.

Good first reminder about this being the era where developers actively hated players and weren't afraid to show it to you.

Finished this last night for Spooktober game #5. Got endings f and g. I plan to use a walkthrough to get a more thorough ending before calling it on this game and writing a review, but it's certainly a weird one!

Okay, so it's still possible for me to be surprised by game news from time to time. I love the Super Famicom Clock Tower, and never expected it to get an English release nearly three decades later. Will be first in line for this one!

Tried to play this, but lost interest within an hour. After checking a walkthrough and learning how to actually play, I still don't want to play it. I do not like adventure game gameplay, such as wandering around trying to figure out which part of the screen to click on. Having to press a button repeatedly to avoid death, the lack of a map, and the health/healing mechanic does not make me want to play either.

I might watch a video to experience the game instead.
