Chibi-Robo: Plug into Adventure (Blind) - Episode 28: Better than Using a DeLorean
0In today's episode of the "Chibi-Robo!" playthrough, we get one of the most useful outfits in the game from Mrs. Sanderson, complete Sophie's questline, meet the aliens that visited Giga-Robo, and hijack their technology, which takes us ten years into the past.
By following Jenny's one-off hint by using the Chibi-Radar in the middle of that crop circle in the backyard, we're able to summon the aliens that we saw in Giga-Robo's memories, but before we can speak to them, we need to first buy a translator, which the shop oddly sells (which makes me wonder what's happening behind the scenes at Citrusoft). Thankfully, we're able to get our hands on the money without much difficulty, allowing us to summon the aliens once again, who then ask us to bring them to Giga-Robo, only for them to enter a world of disappointment when they find out that he's defunct. And based on how sick these aliens get from Earth's air, they'll be going down that same path if they don't leave soon.
But on the bright side, with the aliens barely being able to move because of their sickness, there's no one stopping us from using their technology, which allows us to travel to the master bedroom in the past, where we find Giga-Robo interacting with the family, as well as the passcode to that briefcase and some instructions on how to upgrade the Chibi-Blaster, for some reason.
Though I have to say that this is one of my favorite moments in the game. Sure, you're briefly going back to the past to do some things in a single room, but the game does a great job setting the mood. Between the sepia tone color scheme and the sad music, it feels more akin to visiting a cherished memory rather than traveling to the past. Sure, Chibi-Robo has only recently become a part of the Sandersons' lives, but in that time, we've come to really form a bond with them, so in a way, this moment is just as nostalgic to us as it is for them- especially when you consider Giga-Robo's current sad state.
