Whoa! What's this? Monochrome!? How curious.

Yes, Game Boy Works Color isn't the only Game Boy series in town. I won't be updating GBW as frequently as other series for the time being, but it won't go entirely unloved. If nothing else, this episode reminded me that if I can keep marching onward, eventually I'll get to The Final Fantasy Legend II.

Edit: Video has been revised to fix the lower-thirds that Premiere overwrote. Again. Sigh.

Go! Go! Tank & Aretha retrospective: R-E-S-P-E-C-T this R-P-G on the G-B | Game Boy Works #114

Next on the Game Boy agenda is an odd little puzzler with loads of personality, a great central hook, and some of the most frustrating gameplay imaginable. Go! Go! Tank flies a little too close to the sun, which maybe explains why you have to keep nudging your stupid little airplane down constantly. Also in this episode: A frustrating, grind-intensive role-playing game in which it's entirely possible to lock yourself into an unwinnable state after dozens of hours of play. Fun!
