I thought I’d do something different this time. Instead of making up a story, or writing down my thoughts, I’ll play through a mission in Age of Wonders and write down everything that happens. Win or lose, it will be documented.Continue reading

Age of Wonders [1] – Pretty Cool
Age of Wonders was one of the earlier “spiritual successors” of Master of Magic, if I remember correctly. It had magic and heroes, units, tactical combat, a fantastic world and fun spells. It also had scenarios and a campaign. I remember it being far to difficult for me as a kid. After reading a Let’s Play on Something Awful, I got an itch and bought it on GOG.Continue reading
Vandal Hearts [2] – Game Won!
I said there’d be less writing and more playing, but I honestly didn’t plan to write just two reports about Vandal Hearts. Still, this is exactly what happened. After about thirteen hours, Vandal Hearts is won.Continue reading
Icewind Dale [9] – Chapter V
It’s been two weeks since I last played Icewind Dale, so this report will be about me trying to remember where I was at. It will also be about Chapter V, of course.Continue reading
Vandal Hearts [1] – Less writing, more playing
I’m thinking about further reducing the amount of articles I post. It’s getting to a point where I play through a big chunk of the game, have a hard time figuring out what to write about and then end up producing a lot of worthless padding. Vandal Hearts is where I’ll try a different approach. It’s a fun game for now, but it’s a very basic SRPG, so there isn’t much to write about if I leave out the story.

Jade Cocoon [2] – Victorious!
It’s been between a week this one and my earlier report on Jade Cocoon, game-wise, though the publish dates might differ. Since then, I’ve completed the game, though there is a large amount of content left once the story is over. I made good use of my ARCHOS Gamepad though!Continue reading
Icewind Dale [8] – Chapter IV
As I said before, I will be covering one chapter in every report. I could go with one report per session, but not all my sessions are equal in length or content, so that would probably end up sucking way more than this is. In this one, we cover Chapter IV.Continue reading
Jade Cocoon [1] – ARCHOS Debut
With my new ARCHOS GamePad, I decided to finally play a game I couldn’t on my PSP Go, due to a progress-stopping bug – Jade Cocoon. What is Jade Cocoon? The closest you can get to Pokemon without touching Nintendo, probably. At least it was in those days.Continue reading
Icewind Dale [7] – Chapter III
I did it again. I’m spending so much time writing about Icewind Dale, I can’t find the time to actually play it. It’s time to tighten the belt again. This report will be about the entirety of chapter 3. If it feels too long, I’ll throw some of the less interesting things out. Let’s begin…Continue reading
Suikoden [8] – The Best I Could
Full disclosure: I did all the things I’m writing about in this report on the same day that I wrote the last report on. It’s just that I like to vary my postings so it isn’t all just about one game over and over. Anyway, here goes…Continue reading
