This one is very tied to Current Events the Current Even being CDRomance being shut down (do not narc and correct me in the comments lol) and their last updates was seemingly the entire saga of this Namco dude Wagyan! Who is he!? Namco made a Little Guy and I've never heard of him. He's never showed up in any crossovers, no Namco X Capcom, no Narikiri Dungeon, no Point Blank or Tekken cameo, no nothing! What a mysterious little man. He's like the Metal Sonic of Dig Dug's Fygars and the game's art style feels like a lost Pac-Land sequel it's quite bizzare.
This is the Biomiricle Baby strand of platformer, where your little man has no offensive capability, but he can yell! And yelling makes enemies from Touchy Death Boys to Platform Men. There's also a little Aku Aku system of powering up Himb Yell, after level 4 you get a burst of invincibility before being hit back to level 0. There's multiple paths on a world map so there's replayability, which it deffo needs.
So this game does an Alex Kidd thing with a mini-game in place of true bosses, which since our guy is non-offensive makes sense! There's a match 2 game and there's a word chain game too. Where you pick a word and the last letter of that word, is what the next word choosen needs to start with... SO YEAH, this is fine until the very final boss and then it's not fine! So I dunno who's the culprit here, if the Japanese version is like this or if it's a problem with the English Patch, but like you literally cannot win? The main problem is the English language just fucking loves words ending in "r" and "e" and the game is just not balanced for this reality. There can only be so many R and E words in the world before the final bosses requirements of a 15 word chain before defeating the opponent like... I was at it for 30 minutes, even with using rewinding and cheating, like it can't be done! But that's Englishes fault as a language, Wagyan disproves of reading it and I love that for them.
