#justbeatit The Detroit After (PC)
Decent but flawed Hotline Miami clone. Story reminds me of the Terminator and Robocop but not that great. Controls are a little rough but it follows HLM's lead with a killer soundtrack. I enjoyed it but the king is still undefeated. @polykill

#justbeatit Monument Valley 2 (mobile)
Nice follow up that doesn't try to do anything too crazy, just more of the same puzzles that made the first game so good with a few new ideas added. Had a chill time again and can't wait for the third game to release. @polykill

#justbeatit Unsorted Horror (PC)
A collection of 5 short horror games that are mostly walking sims where you perform small tasks like operating strange equipment. Very eerie atmosphere and creepy music set the mood for you. Cool game from the Buckshot Roulette dev. @polykill

#justbeatit Bloodwash (PC)
I checked it out again for Polymedia Synergy Bingo. Some good jump scares and spooky atmosphere as you investigate disappearances and a serial killer while you wait for your laundry to finish. Great stuff from @torturestar.

#justbeatit Serial Cleaner (PC)
Fun stealth game where you clean up crime scenes by removing bodies, wiping up blood and taking evidence all while avoiding police patrolling the area. Has a decent story set in the mid 70's involving the mob and a serial killer.

#justbeatit Monument Valley (Mobile)
A beautiful and calming puzzle game. The puzzles aren't too tough but some can take time to solve. Also finished the Forgotten Shores and Ida's Dream DLC. High recommend if you like a quick puzzle game. Can't wait to play 2 and 3.

#justbeatit Last Duel (arcade)
Quick 6 level vertical shooter where your ship changes from land to air. @travplaysgames and I just knocked it out at Can Can Wonderland in Minnesota. My first beat for Polykon 2024!

#justbeatit Super Mario Land (Switch)
A childhood favorite that I never beat back then. It's just as fun, not as hard as I remember and is still rockin a great soundtrack. Just doing my part for the Polykill Bingo Synergy square folk.

#justbeatit Slayaway Camp (Android)
Finally got around to finishing this fun puzzle game inspired by 80s slashers that stars a knockoff Jason. The levels can get tough but never too hard to solve. Big thanks to @TopSpot123 for putting this on my radar.

Firestone Walker Parabolita
A very solid, well balanced stout, all of the flavors come together for a great tasting beer. This is how you do bourbon barrel aged right. The last beer remaining from my Christmas beer box and this one knocks it out of the park.

#justbeatit Dinner with an Owl (PC)
Strange point and click where you're stuck in a house with 3 people trying to escape from the host who has an owl head. Decent art style and creepy atmosphere. Quick beat, around 20 minutes for me, escaped on the 10th day. @polykill

#justbeatit Halo: Combat Evolved (Xbox)
Talk about a game that's way too long. Solid FPS controls and ok story but the levels drag on way too much. Was a nice revisit but it belongs in the past. I will say the warthog drives just fine, easiest part of the game by far @polykill

[Mook @Jimmy_Mook_]

#justbeatit Castlevania: Circle of the Moon (Switch)
Great start to the GBA series. The music is solid, just what I expect from a CV game. The bosses weren't too bad once you learned the patterns and I really loved the DSS card system. Awesome stuff!
@polykill

@L33t_Institute @SuperRareGames I need to go back and finish this, had to mess with the control layout a lot to get it where I like it

[Split Up! @SplitUpPodcast]

It's 2002 on the Polymedia Network & the boys are trapped in the past. But that hasn't stopped them from talking about their favorite #horror movies into a microphone. Join @DCharles and @Jimmy_Mook_ as they talk about Dog Soldiers and May on this episode! https://t.co/eRdjIa6kip

#justbeatit NHL 2001 (PS1)
One of my favorite NHL games of all time and is still awesome. Froze on me while saving so I had to restart the playoffs but I did complete 82 games plus playoffs and won the cup for Chicago.

#justbeatit Digimon Battle Spirit (GBA)
Simple fighting game where you win matches by collecting "D-spirits" that fall when you hit your opponent. The sprites look great and the music is solid. You can Digivolve to Ultimate form during a fight, which is a nice touch.
@polykill

[Split Up! @SplitUpPodcast]

The boys have been missing for a while, but they've been found...in 2002. But, don't worry, they found a couple of movies to watch while they're trapped in time's abyss: DOG SOLDIERS and MAY. If you're lucky, you might be hearing from them soon....

#justbeatit Super Mario Odyssey Finally got around to finishing this on the plane home from Magfest. Not sure where it falls on my list of 3D Mario's but I am certain it hasn't unseated my favorite. Really liked the boss fights, game is bit too long for me though. @polykill
