Yeah, it was popular. 23 00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:09,500 Maybe one or two years ago it was on, it was one of those 24 00:01:09,500 --> 00:01:12,800 editors picks, or games were playing on the App Store. 25 00:01:13,300 --> 00:01:15,200 That is the voice that use whenever they write those days, 26 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,100 he tear. Yeah, I'm supplying wall 27 00:01:18,100 --> 00:01:21,200 kickers. Can I tell you that the way the 28 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,300 wall kickers name is written on the game off. 29 00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:27,400 Look at this. Now inside the game just 30 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,500 immediately. Grosses me out for some reason. 31 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,300 Okay. Doesn't look at this, have them. 32 00:01:31,300 --> 00:01:33,200 Oh boy. It's very colorful, isn't it? 33 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,000 Yeah, but it's not just that it's like, okay, maybe I'm 34 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,600 getting a little too Petty about this. 35 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,600 I mean, if what is this podcast, it's not a chance for you to be 36 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,700 incredibly Petty about things. What kickers, there's just so 37 00:01:44,700 --> 00:01:46,900 much going on and there's a lot going on. 38 00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:50,300 There's like wall, right? There's a wall in the background 39 00:01:50,300 --> 00:01:56,200 of the brick wall and literally a shoe kicking, plus a little 40 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,100 image of. Yeah. 41 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,300 The the your character Actually doing some wall-jumping which I 42 00:02:02,300 --> 00:02:04,900 had noticed before. Until you pointed this out, it 43 00:02:04,900 --> 00:02:08,500 looks like a name of a candy, the way that it's written out. 44 00:02:08,500 --> 00:02:13,100 It's like, it could be, like AirHeads or Lifesavers, right? 45 00:02:13,100 --> 00:02:15,500 Which I think was inspiration for this name. 46 00:02:15,900 --> 00:02:18,400 Lifesavers actually means wall kickers. 47 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,400 Little known fact in wall kickers. 48 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,500 You play as a variety of characters jumping from wall to 49 00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:28,600 wall and the quest. The reason of it is to go as far 50 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,800 as possible, Right? Still literally We not walk 51 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,300 kicking yeah it's jumping on yeah she'll be cool wall jumpers 52 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,100 wall Grabbers you know we love to rename things on the show 53 00:02:40,100 --> 00:02:43,300 wall, wall Grabbers. I think double jumpers is more 54 00:02:43,300 --> 00:02:45,300 like it, Waldrop, double jumping. 55 00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:49,700 All right, grab you sometimes, you double jump while jumping 56 00:02:49,900 --> 00:02:51,600 while tempers. Why not while jumpers? 57 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,100 Let's see if wall jumpers was actually taken nope. 58 00:02:55,100 --> 00:02:57,400 While jumper just goes directly to walk kickers. 59 00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,800 There's another game called wall jump. 60 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,600 With an exclamation mark. Maybe that was released before 61 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,500 wall kickers comes. I think about the heck SEO, you 62 00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:08,000 know. Mmm, they want. 63 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,000 They want to juice that they want that fresh juice. 64 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,700 It is a platform is the platform game, right? 65 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,900 Except the only difference here is the platforms are mostly 66 00:03:16,900 --> 00:03:18,800 vertical. Yeah, I'd say it's like an 67 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,600 arcade arcade platformer one Handa one-hander which again 68 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,000 makes this very much an Edwin game mobile hander. 69 00:03:26,300 --> 00:03:29,000 Yep, you can be doing things. You can be petting a cat, 70 00:03:29,300 --> 00:03:32,300 churning, some Utter hanging onto a Subway pole, mmm, and in 71 00:03:32,300 --> 00:03:36,300 the other hand, you could be walking which always like that 72 00:03:36,300 --> 00:03:43,000 is, that is my favorite pastime. Well, which is this, this is a 73 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,700 single hand as I say. So we control the super simple. 74 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,600 You tap to jump the longer, you hold the higher you jump and 75 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,700 then if you're in midair, you get one opportunity to do a 76 00:03:52,700 --> 00:03:56,400 backflip and which gives you a kind of a second jump, but 77 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,700 changes Direction, that's really hard to describe but it's quite 78 00:03:58,700 --> 00:03:59,800 intuitive, right? Let's go. 79 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,400 Every every tap you make, every tap, you made your jumping in 80 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,000 one direction from one wall to the other. 81 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,700 So, the way that it's laid out is your character starts in the 82 00:04:10,700 --> 00:04:13,800 middle of two walls and usually starts on one side. 83 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,200 When you tap it jumps you towards the other side to the 84 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,500 other wall. And I would say the longer you 85 00:04:19,500 --> 00:04:21,100 actually press is not higher you. 86 00:04:21,100 --> 00:04:24,600 Jump is just it makes you jump longer and the same trajectory 87 00:04:24,700 --> 00:04:27,900 so it's not like you go higher. Mmm, you go higher. 88 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,100 Oh, I see, I just know that. Yeah, that's Cool, right? 89 00:04:31,100 --> 00:04:33,900 Yeah, longer you just jump for a longer amount of time. 90 00:04:34,300 --> 00:04:37,700 Whereas if you let go, it sort of stops you mid-jump and sort 91 00:04:37,700 --> 00:04:39,400 of sets you on your path downwards. 92 00:04:39,500 --> 00:04:42,400 Mmm. Yeah, I think it's very, it's 93 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,100 intuitive but it's hard to describe, right? 94 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,800 And if you jump, if you tap twice, midair it sort of shifts 95 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,300 your weight and allows you to jump from the direction that you 96 00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:56,200 came from. So seize on this crime, right? 97 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,300 Yeah. It's hard to describe in podcast 98 00:04:59,300 --> 00:05:03,700 for, but you've, if you've ever seen one of those parkour fools 99 00:05:03,700 --> 00:05:05,700 running up a wall right side to side. 100 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,500 Thank God. When Mario does the wall jump? 101 00:05:08,500 --> 00:05:10,300 That's exactly what this game is. 102 00:05:10,300 --> 00:05:13,600 You're just constantly doing. So you're jumping from one wall 103 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,000 to the other climbing your way up and trying to go as high as 104 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,500 possible before you fall. And there are different 105 00:05:20,500 --> 00:05:23,300 obstacles that come in the way. Oh, there are many obstacles. 106 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,900 The was your least favorite obstacle ads. 107 00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:30,900 Oh I page because I'm you know, those about my graders. 108 00:05:31,100 --> 00:05:34,900 I think my least favorite is the moving travel L. 109 00:05:34,900 --> 00:05:38,000 It will speedily move you towards spikes. 110 00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:40,700 I think mine is do not care for them. 111 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:45,500 Probably the timer Electra fire. Oh the time Electra fire. 112 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,400 Oh yeah yeah because then it just makes you waste time you 113 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,600 have to wait until it's the right moment for you to jump on 114 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,600 it. There's this little counter that 115 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:58,900 says like 4 3 2 1 and then at that point He goes off on that 116 00:05:58,900 --> 00:06:02,400 wall and so much like your house, which, which makes your 117 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,600 monkey explode. Disintegrates I'm shocked. 118 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:15,300 I was like, what my monkey?

Yeah. 173 00:08:44,500 --> 00:08:49,100 Shadowy element nightlife sounds fun but I have no idea what it 174 00:08:49,100 --> 00:08:50,700 does and what it would look like. 175 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,100 Yes, it from the shadowy thing and outdoor one pay 99 Cents for 176 00:08:53,100 --> 00:08:54,700 that. I'm not sure. 177 00:08:54,700 --> 00:08:57,500 The other thing is, like, I don't get a sense why I should 178 00:08:57,500 --> 00:09:01,900 pay for the other places other than just Aesthetics, is it, 179 00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:03,800 just the Aesthetics or are they going to be like different 180 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,000 elements that That actually played differently. 181 00:09:06,100 --> 00:09:09,300 Like that's a very good question and I do not know, are there 182 00:09:09,300 --> 00:09:12,800 different moving platforms.

Yep. 185 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,800 That's where your question. I think that's something that's 186 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,000 maybe a negative Point here. Why would you want to pay for 187 00:09:23,100 --> 00:09:24,900 more levels? It's just the skin. 188 00:09:24,900 --> 00:09:26,600 Is it just a skin on the existing level? 189 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,900 Or is it actually more exciting obstacles to dodge around? 190 00:09:30,900 --> 00:09:31,900 Yeah. And I feel like I could have 191 00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:34,700 used, like a little line, right? They have a little line for The 192 00:09:34,700 --> 00:09:37,000 characters. Yes, exactly. 193 00:09:37,100 --> 00:09:39,200 Yeah, they'll log line. Hmm, very funny. 194 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:40,300 I'll be writing. Well done. 195 00:09:40,500 --> 00:09:45,200 Sure like ninja Villa split that bamboo with the ninja stars or 196 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,000 something like that, right? Where it gives you a little bit 197 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,600 of a hint of maybe there's something different here. 198 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,000 That's a good one. You know what, for the sake of 199 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,500 research, I'm gonna do it. Oh, here we go, stand by live on 200 00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:57,700 air. Purchase World packet, 3 themes 201 00:09:57,700 --> 00:09:59,800 and fauna bonus coins were special price. 202 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,200 Is that an upsell? That's not it. 203 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:05,000 I've been up, sold for 99 cents. I'm a sucker. 204 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,200 What can I say? But I have been playing this 205 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,500 game quite a lot because spoiler alert, the people like to 206 00:10:09,500 --> 00:10:10,700 Mobius. Thank you. 207 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,600 What should I get? I got what world's wasn't 208 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,300 magical worlds? Have worlds have I unlocked? 209 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:23,300 Whoa, I've unlocked moon-world. A boy, which is a jump, a little 210 00:10:23,300 --> 00:10:26,800 bit floatier, no mmmm. That should be right? 211 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,700 Yeah, nope. It looks exactly the same. 212 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,300 I mean, the the walls are made of different material but 213 00:10:34,300 --> 00:10:37,000 essentially the same was just reskinned. 214 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,800 Huh, same obstacles. Yeah, but I imagine it, which 215 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,200 sounds like a good excuse to get to the three by threes, three 216 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,400 good things, bad things sometimes you jump, sometimes 217 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,800 you leap and fall straight inside his voice. 218 00:10:50,900 --> 00:10:53,000 All right I'll start with a good thing. 219 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,800 It needs no explanation. It's one of those games where 220 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,300 hey you want something fun wish to play? 221 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,900 A when you have nothing better to do and want to experience 222 00:11:04,900 --> 00:11:07,300 some good old action, jumping. Yep. 223 00:11:07,300 --> 00:11:08,800 Game. Try it out. 224 00:11:08,900 --> 00:11:12,500 It's it is quite there is a little bit there where you do 225 00:11:12,500 --> 00:11:15,900 have to time things really well. And it gets to a point where 226 00:11:15,900 --> 00:11:17,100 it's kind of like a puzzle, right? 227 00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:19,800 Like you have to you see the things in front of you and you 228 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,500 kind of have to plan your Taps and be pretty precise about it. 229 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,600 Which is really good. You do say there's no need for 230 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:30,000 explanations but they do explain every time the level starts. 231 00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:34,100 What did he do? Tap is to jump and tap again to 232 00:11:34,100 --> 00:11:38,000 flip midair which was used for the first time but now that I'm 233 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,100 a professional you know I'm I get it you tell me this again 234 00:11:41,100 --> 00:11:42,400 you're a professional while jumper. 235 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,400 Yeah this is this. What you're saying? 236 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,400 This is what I do. My good point is that it is a 237 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,300 zero friction game. You don't need to prepare 238 00:11:50,300 --> 00:11:52,100 yourself for a 20-minute session, right? 239 00:11:52,100 --> 00:11:55,800 Which is a beaut lovely contrast to last week's game, the kingdom 240 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,200 Vengeance Rush Hour. Chinatown goes right in in and 241 00:11:59,300 --> 00:12:01,200 out which is a, you know, a trait of a net win game. 242 00:12:01,500 --> 00:12:04,500 If we defining games, my next good point is that it may seem a 243 00:12:04,500 --> 00:12:08,400 little simple and silly initially, but as you play it, 244 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,300 there are, there are things that actually hooks, you like the the 245 00:12:12,300 --> 00:12:17,300 double jump mechanism on top of the way that the walls handled 246 00:12:17,300 --> 00:12:20,200 differently like some walls crumble instantly. 247 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,800 So you got to leap off right away. 248 00:12:22,300 --> 00:12:24,500 Some walls, like, we just mentioned, will bounce you off 249 00:12:24,500 --> 00:12:27,100 immediately? So if you're used to tapping 250 00:12:27,100 --> 00:12:29,500 after you hit a wall, that's going to mess you up. 251 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,000 You done goofed and and these things like because the death is 252 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,300 our sewing inconsequential you know you kind of learn it along 253 00:12:37,300 --> 00:12:40,500 the way and you have to build the muscle memory to accommodate 254 00:12:40,500 --> 00:12:42,300 for these things. And I think that would be the 255 00:12:42,300 --> 00:12:44,000 fun part of actually playing this game. 256 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,500 Yeah. Learning how to deal with all 257 00:12:46,500 --> 00:12:50,100 the different types of walls and like pulling off that? 258 00:12:50,100 --> 00:12:54,000 Like slightly tricky Movement by backflipping over some spikes. 259 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,600 That is pretty fun. I liked it. 260 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:57,700 I thought they've done a good job. 261 00:12:58,500 --> 00:13:01,200 You get that little little burst of dopamine but yes. 262 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:02,800 You did it. I got it. 263 00:13:02,900 --> 00:13:04,900 You've done it. I've gone done it, you've walked 264 00:13:04,900 --> 00:13:06,900 kicked. I've avoided those pesky word 265 00:13:06,900 --> 00:13:09,000 spikes. I guess that is a good thing to 266 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,900 write. Like you can you can completely 267 00:13:10,900 --> 00:13:17,500 function and have your cognitive senses as you play this game 268 00:13:17,500 --> 00:13:20,400 which could be a bad point as well, right. 269 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,500 Like you can totally listen to a podcast and play this. 270 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,900 I was not able to listen to a podcast and play Kingdom 271 00:13:26,900 --> 00:13:29,800 Vengeance. Like I would kind of lose the 272 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,100 track of what they were saying because I was Focused on the 273 00:13:32,100 --> 00:13:35,100 game, whereas would walk Acres? Yes. 274 00:13:35,100 --> 00:13:36,700 No, such problem. You could be listening to a 275 00:13:36,708 --> 00:13:41,400 podcast and read War and Peace. At the same time while playing 276 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,600 this game effectively. When you die when you inevitably 277 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:50,000 fall off a wall or get impaled on some spikes you while you 278 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,700 lose the counter for your current progress, you don't 279 00:13:54,700 --> 00:13:56,000 start right at the very beginning. 280 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,600 Again you start from that section so we should say every 281 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,500 ten walls. I don't understand what the The 282 00:14:01,500 --> 00:14:05,400 ten counts as but every 10 I guess hate units of height. 283 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,600 Maybe that's it. Yeah, you get a little marker 284 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:13,600 point that if you were to fall off, you your score reset to 285 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,100 zero, but you start from that place. 286 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,500 I checked that one if you will a very good way of describing a 287 00:14:17,508 --> 00:14:19,100 checkpoint but you lose your score. 288 00:14:19,100 --> 00:14:21,700 So that was actually quite nice way around. 289 00:14:22,100 --> 00:14:24,900 What could be repetitive of having to start with exactly the 290 00:14:24,900 --> 00:14:27,400 same levels each time? That's strange? 291 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,300 Because even though I reach the checkpoint I would not start 292 00:14:30,300 --> 00:14:33,200 from that point. I feel maybe you didn't get far 293 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,700 enough, maybe, oh, you must learn to jump on walls, more 294 00:14:36,900 --> 00:14:40,400 young grasshopper should be say, what was your highest score? 295 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,600 Sure, why not? Okay, Gold Cup in the top top 296 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:44,500 left. Is that it? 297 00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:46,600 Yeah. Mine 141. 298 00:14:46,700 --> 00:14:48,700 Oh, wow. That's good - 42. 299 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,600 That's not so good. Yeah, that's okay. 300 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,500 You can tell how much emphasis I put on this game, unfortunately, 301 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,600 which is good way to go to the negative points. 302 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,300 It's rather simple in it. Yeah. 303 00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:05,900 It's not a, it's not a lot, it's not a deep long term game, but I 304 00:15:05,908 --> 00:15:08,300 think that's that's what I like bright. 305 00:15:08,300 --> 00:15:10,900 But if you're looking for something that you will be 306 00:15:10,900 --> 00:15:14,700 playing in three weeks time, this probably isn't it. 307 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,000 Mmm, but that's it. It is super fun. 308 00:15:17,100 --> 00:15:20,200 But yeah, it's a fun pick up and play game. 309 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,200 Yeah, there's something Charming about it, but for me, I don't 310 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,400 think it was just my cup of tea for game. 311 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,300 Like, I usually play on mobile, I can I can just come to me. 312 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,200 You to Mobile gaming for you, I can see the appeal. 313 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:39,600 But normally, when I tend to play a game on the mobile, this 314 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,300 Falls along the lines of like, oh, it's a little bit too. 315 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:47,000 It's a little bit too simple for me or the mechanics are probably 316 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,000 going to be too repetitive for me to actually enjoy it. 317 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,200 Like, this reminds me a lot of what is that? 318 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,600 I am ping pong King. Oh right. 319 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,300 Okay. And nothing which case, like 320 00:15:58,300 --> 00:15:59,300 you're essentially doing the same thing. 321 00:15:59,300 --> 00:16:03,100 You're just tapping in rhythm. Them and timing to what your 322 00:16:03,100 --> 00:16:06,600 character is doing, right? With, very, slight variances, 323 00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:10,100 and you just being a little bit more effective in each way of 324 00:16:10,100 --> 00:16:12,100 doing that. But the difference in a game 325 00:16:12,100 --> 00:16:15,000 like Ping Pong King, is that there is a set amount of 326 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,800 progression in which you go like you're facing off in different 327 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,300 opponents that kind of play differently. 328 00:16:19,300 --> 00:16:22,300 Whereas this is just you keep going up and up and up. 329 00:16:22,300 --> 00:16:24,200 And while there might be differences in like the 330 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,900 different walls, you encounter. Yeah, for me there was no sense 331 00:16:27,900 --> 00:16:30,300 of oh, I got to get to the next part. 332 00:16:30,700 --> 00:16:33,900 Well, Mmm. What about W have many, many of 333 00:16:33,908 --> 00:16:39,500 the bad points? Yeah, I don't think I like this 334 00:16:39,500 --> 00:16:41,600 game. The the art style also for me, 335 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:46,100 is a little bit too childish. It borderlines. 336 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,900 Mmm, borderlines cute hips, the logo. 337 00:16:49,100 --> 00:16:54,400 Yeah, and it borderlines ugly normally like, not to say like, 338 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,200 you know, I like things that are ugly. 339 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,200 Sometimes like that are purposely ugly but this to me 340 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,800 just seems a little bit. I don't know. 341 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,500 Like, I don't I think to me, it seems like it was just very half 342 00:17:04,500 --> 00:17:08,200 done like their elements in here where I feel they could just add 343 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,900 a little bit more detail. That would have been great and 344 00:17:10,900 --> 00:17:14,400 the colors are very very loud that logo. 345 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,700 Now you point out the logo, that's really upsetting because 346 00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:19,400 the rest of the, I mean, the actual levels itself. 347 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,900 I think our yeah nicely designed, they're like they've 348 00:17:22,099 --> 00:17:24,500 nice color schemes. I mean, even on this new level, 349 00:17:24,500 --> 00:17:27,800 I unlocked have got to know a nice Sunset me background with 350 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:28,900 rain. Well that's kind of cool. 351 00:17:28,900 --> 00:17:30,000 Yeah, that looks cool. That's awesome. 352 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,100 But then cue ball. Boy, go back to that menu page. 353 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,500 Ah, yeah, Laura, the the color scheme and just like the choices 354 00:17:37,500 --> 00:17:42,100 that they made doesn't really appeal to me as a pixel Corners 355 00:17:43,700 --> 00:17:47,900 as he adult, man with eyes, but that's just a personal 356 00:17:47,900 --> 00:17:52,000 preference, right? Final. 70 ratings am two days 357 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,100 for me. Oh, that's too bad. 358 00:17:54,100 --> 00:17:57,700 Yeah. Oh this this push my buttons. 359 00:17:57,900 --> 00:18:01,300 This I'm, I mean, I'm a sucker for a single-handed platformer 360 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,800 and maybe I should go back and try Super Mario, run. 361 00:18:03,900 --> 00:18:07,400 Again, that seems pretty similar to this whole thing, right? 362 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,000 That is also game that I kind of want to get back into as well. 363 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,100 Maybe there should be a festive challenge for us. 364 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:18,900 Hmm, do such things but I it is so easy to pick up. 365 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,300 Play I've played this six out of seven days. 366 00:18:21,500 --> 00:18:24,500 Nice.

However, we are nothing if not 380 00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:08,500 varied on this on the show, Edwin for the next seven days 381 00:19:08,900 --> 00:19:13,600 you shall play nay, I demand you play very good, rebel Inc, 382 00:19:13,900 --> 00:19:20,000 Insurgency simulator, Now, is this a tattooing game? 383 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,400 It is oh no, it's not.

Just government. 400 00:20:20,500 --> 00:20:23,500 Okay.

Oh, this house may be little bit 411 00:20:58,500 --> 00:21:01,600 like rains. We need to balance the interests 412 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,700 of several policies, right? So it does seem to be some sort 413 00:21:04,700 --> 00:21:07,300 of like simulation game where you're trying to balance, 414 00:21:07,500 --> 00:21:14,400 Economic Development, technology tree, Goodwill money corruption 415 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,300 and all that stuff and it plays kind of like a board game would. 416 00:21:17,300 --> 00:21:21,500 But really Meant for like a game game, like a mobile game. 417 00:21:22,100 --> 00:21:25,300 So yes, it does from Little screenshots it does have a sort 418 00:21:25,300 --> 00:21:26,600 of a board game. You feel to it? 419 00:21:26,900 --> 00:21:29,900 Also little bit Kingdom, Rush Vengeance style, maybe because 420 00:21:29,900 --> 00:21:32,400 you've got the definitely not a tower. 421 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,900 Is it all the tile defense that all? 422 00:21:33,900 --> 00:21:37,200 Yeah, this is more.

Yeah, it was super easy and we 510 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,100 only go into a slight argument about. 511 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,700 About the correct positioning in uprightness of Centre. 512 00:25:50,900 --> 00:25:54,400 So that's a that's improved from last year, where we got an 513 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,400 argument about the positioning in the uprightness and someone 514 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,900 had to crawl around on the floor and spend five minutes cranking 515 00:26:00,900 --> 00:26:04,800 these little screws.
