I'm really rusty since we played last time.

Not that this is a bad game or anything, but I should be playing Marble Madness.

"Trypticon" that's his name. Those are G1 too. If I make it to the second round I’m changing my name to trypticon

While rebuilding Wily's Castle, right?  This game is too easy, so I believe you skinny.  Nice work.

Oh man, that week last year when I changed all those game title screens to kickle themed ones.... I'm realizing now that it was me that slacked off too much this year.

Unfortunately Dr. Wily’s castle will have to be moved to a new location. But another will be built!

I just happened across a nice big box at a yard sale for $20. They are missing parts and in pretty bad shape but I , of course, loved the transformers as a child and they still hold a special place in my heart. 

Scorponok is in there too. I have his other claw somewhere.

I want to at least reach Toy Land and make some real progress before calling it quits. I came close today.

Runs of this game take way too long. Very annoying when you get far and then choke.

That’s the worst part for me (besides the whole puzzle thing). It’s such a slow game. And 20 minutes real time feels like FOR. EV. ER! And then you realize you only half way through garden land. 

I cant do it. I’ve made like three or four real attempts. Kawaii can’t even play it and she likes puzzle games.

The other day I got something like 4,800,000 and then didn't get a picture in time before the continue screen went away. All because the picture doesn't fit my TV. I was so pissed.

But then I tried again and got over 5 million so it was just as well.

This game is a lot of fun! I'm going to try to get a few more goes at it this weekend.


Shoutouts to Jim for the painting that I won in one of the weekly contests in 2017! I had to display it for this special occasion.
