I donβt either. Curse clearly loves that it takes place in a world of pirate pastiche inspired by Pirates of the Carribean and that part of Disneyland in general. I think the split realty part was what wasnβt liked.- 706 replies

Guess the word within the number of tries given. The rules are the same as the NYT game Wordle, except the dictionary is expanded from the base Wordle dictionary of English words, to include a bunch of LucasArts specific ones. The rules are basically: The answer will always be LucasArts related You have six tries to guess the word Any letter you guess that is grey isnβt in the word Any letter you guess that is yellow IS in the word, but youβve got it in the wrong place Any letter you guess that is green is in the word AND youβve got it in the right place Because Remi made this version of the game it is sometimes troll-ish in its answers For example hereβs todays: π I beat #Mojole #227 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 3/6 π€π€π€π€π€ ππ€π€ππ€ πππππ https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/ My first guess was absolutely wrong. I tried a five letter word even though the instructions said it was a wildcard day and therefore the word was shorter. I did that because I knew the chances of guessing it right off were basically nil so I should try a first word with a spread of letters in it. Unfortunately none were in the word. My second guess, I got lucky and correctly pinned down the first letter AND another letter. From these I took a wild swing and got the word (there has been an ongoing theme ebbing and flowing through the words the last week or so which helped my guess in this case).

Grim Fandango Remastered physical release by LRG
Jake replied to Sopabuena's topic in General Discussion
That Grim collectors edition is an amazing release. No notes. Happy to see the triangle box back even if itβs a little funky. Just awesome to see a weird shaped box again! -

Something being a satire or self aware doesnβt mean you as the audience shouldnβt or canβt feel genuine attachment to the characters. (I canβt tell if that is being argued or not but itβs sort of implied by @karmo. Apologies if Iβm misreading what you were implying. This is more of a side thought than a direct response to anything!) I think Monkey Island 1 is definitely a send up of a bunch of pirate and adventure tropes, but itβs also a story where (for many players) the stakes end up feeling like they matter. You want guybrush to succeed and beat lechuck, for Guybrush and Elaine to get together (especially if you see their scene on the docks). The game being a send-up doesnβt mean you have to keep an ironic detachment from the characters; their wants and needs are genuine, they donβt know theyβre in a send-up.* The Princess Bride is probably the cleanest example of this - even though the kid knows heβs being told a story, and even though the characters themselves seem to occasionally know theyβre existing in a trope filled adventure story, everyone in all layers of the story and meta story are rooting for them to succeed in the end. *though Roger Rabbit rules do apply: they occasionally know theyβre in a game but βonly when itβs funny.β

It's awesome work. The new bread looks really seamless.

Thatβs a great read on it. I think it is the climax even if they donβt have a face to face fight. The two of them scrambling over a bunch of nonsense lore machinery to try and be the first one to the secret is the correct conflict for this story imo.- 706 replies
