Uh-Oh, Better Get Mako

Posted on May 29, 2026 by Nathan

I played through part of the original Final Fantasy VII when it was still fairly new, but I never finished it. I think I remember getting to the part where the rocket was launched. So I’m playing through it again … Continue reading →

The Eldritch Hero

Posted on May 14, 2026 by Nathan

Cthulhu Saves the World – I enjoyed Cosmic Star Heroine from Zeboyd Games, so I checked out this earlier game. It’s a throwback to the sixteen-bit era with much of the same style and sense of humor, but it’s shorter … Continue reading →

Eight Is Enough

Posted on January 30, 2025 by Nathan

I last wrote about Octopath Traveler in October, and I’m still playing it now when I have the chance. I don’t think I’ve played anything else in the meantime, except for the occasional Sims 4. I have finished with the third chapters … Continue reading →

Zeromus Mission

Posted on April 27, 2024 by Nathan

Since I finally managed to beat Zeromus (and I was kind of surprised when I did), I suppose I should say some more about Final Fantasy IV. This was the second game in the series to be released in North … Continue reading →

Let Me Kluya In

Posted on April 12, 2024 by Nathan

I’ve reached Zeromus, the final boss in Final Fantasy IV (the Game Boy Advance version), but haven’t been able to beat him. I can’t really think of anything to do other than just leveling up some more, but I suppose … Continue reading →

You’ve Got a Fiend in Me

Posted on March 17, 2024 by Nathan

I wrote a bit about the Four Fiends from Final Fantasy before, but I’ve since thought of more to say. Four of the main bosses in the first games, they’re associated with the four classical elements, and are causing the destruction … Continue reading →

Going to the Temple and We’re Gonna Kill Chaos

Posted on February 29, 2024 by Nathan

I recently played through the original Final Fantasy on Game Boy Advance. That game was important to me growing up; I received the NES cartridge for my thirteenth birthday, and eventually made it through the whole thing, underleveled throughout most of it … Continue reading →
