Snail Bob 2 Flash Review

Time for a pretty laid-back puzzler today. Again, this content is so fresh it hasn't even passed judgement yet - but I have no doubt it will.

Snail Bob 2

This premise of this game is simple enough - get Bob the snail to the exit. You have to click on various things at various times to get Bob around the various hazards.



The game is well-drawn and well-animated. I couldn't find any glitches, and everything looks good and runs smoothly.

The game was overall pretty easy - None of the puzzles are hugely difficult, and the whole game can be completed in a few minutes.

That said, it was a good bit of fun, and it didn't give me any heartache with the execution.

Name that Pokemon Flash Review

I'll start off by apologising for last week - the HTML didn't work out. I HAD included the link, but it didn't show up in the post. It's fixed if you're interested.

Now, onto another review. This time I'm reviewing some fresh content, still on the NG front page.

Name That Pokemon

So, the basic idea of this game is to name 15 Pokemon from the original 150. The quicker you type in the name, the more bonus points you get. There's medals available (if you're into that sort of thing), as well as in-game achievements.

I enjoyed this game, but that may just be because I know all the answers, and I can type kinda quickly. It always makes a game feel better if you're not shit at it.

The pictures are all official pictures, no fan-drawn shit, so it's fairly easy to tell which Pokemon it is, leaving the challenges to remembering the name, and managing to clearly type the name in fast enough.

The music worked, but was a little annoying after a long session of trying to get some of the harder achievements.

Overall, a fun game if you were into Pokemon as a kid and can type okay, but may be lost on people who were never Pokemon trainers.
