I love Bomberman (oh god, look at how much time I've spent on Super Bomberman R 2 since it released two days ago...), I like Dig Dug, and I also happen to like Watership Down, and also those angry moles remind me of Mr. Resetti from Animal Crossing, which I also used to like, so a game with a bomb-pooping bunny that combines all of these things is right up my alley.
I love the style of the key-art, too - also very on-point. This'd be the second game this week that feels like it's been made just for me, hahaha!
Bought.

I really like Murtop, too.
It plays spot-on, and feels a lot like a "lost" arcade-game from the 1980s (which reminded me somewhat of another recent title called Donut Dodo).But will this make me swear as much as Dig Dug does???That is entirely possible - in the best of arcade traditions, of course.

The trailer really does evoke some traumatic memories of dig dug. The style is spot on. I bet I'd be very bad at this one as well.

I bought this game quite some time ago. It's pretty neat. I can recommend it to anyone that finds the premise even remotely interesting.

Well, I'll do my best. So yesterday, my wife and I went to my favourite fancy patisserie place, Thomas Haas, and along with some very nice pastries I got some absolutely fabulous deep dark hot chocolate, made with a really nice 70%. Strong, very strong, and thick, but because 70% not too sweet. We strolled along the beach and sipped and munched.and a mug of cocoa.Share the cocoa, would you, please? The weather's getting colder now!
Normally at home I don't make hot chocolate, I make cocoa, with cocoa powder, sugar and milk. Lately I've been using cocoa from this place that makes all kinds of very artistic and high quality hot chocolate, called Cocoa Monk. I bought the guy's cocoa powder once, thinking "I probably won't do this again--stuff's foolishly expensive and probably no better than what I usually use." It was so much better. When I went back to get more I asked him why; he said most cocoa powder you get, even "gourmet", has almost zero cocoa butter and so it's crap, doesn't convey the flavour well. His does have cocoa butter. Sounds reasonable. As a result, the cocoa I make is some of the best you're gonna taste. Especially after I add a bit of Calvados or Grand Marnier.
That's all I can manage over the interwebs, I'm afraid.
