Hey friends! Today we have our second random Chinese bootleg turn-based-RPG game in a row. I don't think I've had a single 'nother one this whole series so far, but we managed to get two of them in a row somehow.

This is a lot of the same -- I can't read anything, so I have to go by context clues and brute force. Basically this boils down to "Talk to everyone and keep moving forward and hope nothing stops my progress."

The gameplay is similar to all turn-based RPGs (or JRPGS, as they're called), in which you take turns fighting different random monsters. Think Final Fantasy and you're there. This combat is again hurt by the fact I can't read anything, and thus can't strategize with item or spell usage, instead blindly default-attacking everything that comes my way.

So this episode, for lack of other stimuli, became a flurry of nostalgia. I can't remember everything that came up, but we at least touched on Neopets, Pogs, and Jumpstart First Grade.

Oh, and somehow I think I managed to trigger 999 life... if anyone has any idea what happened there, please let me know. That was the most interesting thing of the episode for me by far and I'd love to know exactly what happened there.

💛 Squiggs

For the second episode in a row, we have a game so obscure that has no Wikipedia or eBay presence. Am I playing real games anymore?


---[ Series Information ]---------------

Squiggy Seven: First Impressions is a series where I blind review random NES games in an effort to learn more about the hidden classics on the system. I have gotten into retro collecting for the NES and I am on the hunt for those games I've never played that I'm missing out on.
