One Night Stand (Mac): COMPLETED!

Posted on Written by

One Night Stand is a graphical adventure game, which starts off when you wake up in bed with a sleeping girl, but you can’t remember how you got there.

There are 12 endings, 10 of which I’ve now seen, each one reached depending on how you interact with the girl and the objects in her bedroom before you inevitably leave. You can poke around in her purse and on her laptop to try and find her name, or question her to find out more about what happened the previous night.

It was interesting, but although I think I got the “best” ending, it’s still not ideal – you part on good terms, as friends, but nothing more. I’m pretty sure the girl drugged me, but I can’t prove this and none of the routes through the game I took seemed to show it for sure. One came close, when she went nuts at me and asked if I thought that was what she did, but I ended up kicked out the house soon afterwards.

And there’s the ending where you steal her knickers, leaving wearing them. Ace.

3D Thunder Blade (3DS): COMPLETED!

Posted on Written by

It was never the best of Sega’s arcade games. Impressive as it was, with the hydraulic cabinet and fancy (at the time) scaling sprites, I never really found it very much fun. I bought the Mega Drive “Super” version, which had neither of those selling points and it was dire. I wasn’t expecting much from the 3D update.

And I was right. It’s pretty poor. The 3D works well, and it has all the nice touches other games in the 3D Classics series have, like tilting display and “cabinet noises”, but it’s short, easy, and boring.

Much easier than Super Thunder Blade was, in fact. Not sure why that might be, but I’m sure that was a lot longer. I certainly never completed it, anyway. I don’t think I’ll be playing this again – the into the screen levels are fun but very short, and the vertically scrolling bits aren’t a patch on other shoot ’em ups.

It’s no Afterburner.

3D Puyo Puyo 2 (3DS): COMPLETED!

Posted on Written by

Number two completed from the Sega 3D Classics Collection. It started off very easy, but by stage 14 or so it was nigh on impossible. My tactic near the end was to place stuff as quickly as possible almost anywhere, then hope I’d done enough, unintentionally, to set up a few chains.

It seemed to work, but there were so many near misses and failures.

Unexpectedly, the final boss (“Satan”, although very different looking to any Satan you might think) was very easy to beat. Or I was just lucky?
