I guess i should do a “games i finished” thread

Famicom Detective Club: The Girl Who Stands Behind

Clunky as hell, some of the worst “guess what I’m thinking” gameplay since old clunky Sierra games, but i loved it nonetheless

Pacing ramps in a thrilling fashion and had no idea where it was going!

I cannot stress enough how weird it is to hear kookaburras used in tv shows, movies and cartoons as shorthand for a foreign or ancient place

I literally heard one this morning when getting ready for the day

Imagine if you heard, i dunno, a squirrel? A sparrow? Instead

It’s so stupid

Iznogoud isn’t very well known in the US (or even Australia, where Asterix and Tintin are popular), but in his homeland of France, his scheming and constant failure, along with his repeated utterance of “I want to be Caliph instead of the Caliph” made that phrase used for overambitious people

Iznogoud meets HG Verywells, who is stuck in the past:

“I come from a time of progress: television, ice cubes, psychology, welfare state, pizza, cartoons”

“You can’t have made those marvels up, I believe you. You come from what seems to be a more than perfect future”

I wonder if doing the call-and-response of saying “have you ever” and almost immediately hearing someone say “ever felt like this” in australia still works
