I still have a few more Ace Attorney games I want to play officially, but only the first trilogy has come to Switch so far. Are there any other series, beyond Ace Attorney, Zero Escape, and Danganronpa that have the same goofy mix of puzzles, ridiculous murder plots, and dumb jokes at exactly the wrong moment? I think…
They are very much meant to be done by groups in person, and it’s probably the better experience. Whenever I’ve had any blind spots in my thinking, I’ve just been completely stuck.
Man, I wasn’t even remotely aware of how puzzly this game was until release day when I started watching a Twitch streamer get blindsided by the basic mechanics of minor battles. I love a good puzzle. I’ve had subscriptions to puzzle magazines on and off since middle school, I’m missing out on a monthly…
This is all very nice, but what am I supposed to do with this 30-pack of water wings?
Brick, are you just looking at things in the office and saying they were on your cognitive test?
They got my phone number somehow or another and called my house at least 6 months before I graduated/turned 18. I answered their questions honestly, got to the part about my having asthma, the interview ended immediately, and they never bugged me again.
I don’t get the concern. Cocoa’s just throwing her vote away on a third-party candidate anyway.

It’s best to accept that you will not be able to play through the game in a week. In fact, the further you go, sometimes it’s even unfair to assume you’re going to solve more than one level in a session. It’s a very unique game in that, rather than operate by a set of defined rules, you are making the rules up as you…
Whoa, the American way of life is way more intimately tied to imprisoning a whole lot of people than I was taught growing up.
Once again, I picked the right year to stop drinking.
She could at least have the good sense to advertise Brawndo. It’s got electrolytes. Electrolytes are what plants crave.
“Would you watch a bean-eating movie starring George Wendt?”
I love that episode, and a dozen of their stupid George Wendt/bean questions are already flooding back to me without clicking on the video.
Let them sell cakes!
I was trying to predict what California’s was going to be. Was it the Mexican food of San Diego? The style of American Chinese food that grew out of San Francisco’s immigrant community? The weirdly inventive menu from The French Laundry? Clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl? Sourdough itself? In-N-Out?
Yeah, I’ve got plenty of games that would fetch a decent price in their played-to-death-but-well-cared-for state that I would need to be losing my home before I’d consider selling them. Gitaroo Man, Cubivore, Mega Man X2, most of the classic Square and Enix SNES RPGs... this pristine copy of F-Zero is just an oddity…
Deadly Premonition 1 in a nutshell:
I’m not much of a rare game collector, but an online video game community Secret Santa about 10 years ago netted me a sealed copy of F-Zero for the SNES. I checked prices online and other new/sealed copies were selling for like $20. I wasn’t a fan of the game, so neither tempted to sell it or open it, I put it in a…
In some ways, this was the right year to stop drinking.
Blows? This is a top-tier pun.
