it’s cultural appropriation monday, feb 18th 2k19!
four hours of playtime and still no idea why the baddie wears a bearhead
W H Y is it in these games the first option is to pick the lock instead of fucking knocking on the door??? this is compulsory B&E and yet no one comments on it!!!!!!!!!!
aaaanyway this is an okay point-and-click. the story features the usual spooky ooky indigenous people of the Americas that white people gobble up with a spoon so i was annoyed, though you might not be. the puzzles aren’t anything to write home about so play this when you’re tired and in the mood for pablum. just remember to click on everything because nothing is clearly marked so spamming the mouse is your only recourse.
I’m just geeked that I got to see the word ‘pablum’ in a review on here! It’s a great word!
it’s definitely underutilized in this day and age, which is a! damn! shame!!
Not quite the same, but I got to use the word today, describing my kids music choice (KidsBop) as musical pablum.
Yay for snow days when the kids are off but I have to work and check BLAEO…
it’s up to you as their father to give them good music taste! I don’t know where you’re at, but surely there’s a local smooth jazz radio station you can have on near 24/7?
(The one local to me went off the air several years ago, and it was like a beloved uncle had died. I can still hear the jingle: Double-you jay jay zee, one-oh-six-point wuuuuh-huuuun - ! )
I’m more classical / choral than jazz, but yeah…there is a responsibility to play something other than what their nanny plays for them (i.e., tripe).
BTW, did you check out i heart radio?
OH MY GOD THAT’S THE STATION YOU FOUND IT
:D
I’m in the mood for pablum.
i wanna be all “yummy” and pretend that looks intriguing but no lie one look at that canister inspires gagging. so much gagging. oh lawd.
I just played this like a few days ago and I forgot almost 100% what it was about. I guess it was a good time killer?
i wanna say that there are some HOGs by Artifex Mundi or Big Fish with the same exact scenario (and are probably done better), but wouldn’t be able to name a single one, so yeah, definitely… not… memorable.
