Ed banging out the tunes September 1, 1995

cute, but doesn't have a whole lot of substance to it, especially compared to the later TLK2 Active Play. still has a few fun minigames to keep the kids entertained, and the presentation isn't too bad for the game's age.

only real low point is that the controls for painting are beyond awful: instead of holding down the mouse button to draw with the brush, clicking turns the brush on and off and it's very janky, especially if you're used to other paint programs.

maybe it's a little unfair for an adult like me to give low marks on a kids' game, idk. still, the TLK Activity Center is cute for what it is and younger kids might have a fun time with it.

meatier than the first lion king activity center for sure, and the production values have aged far better as far as disney's PC edutainment fare goes. the minigames can be a bit hit-or-miss especially if you're not of the target age demographic, but the musical numbers are cute and the art tools and animal creators can be pretty fun to mess around with. i feel like this game might've predated (or even predicted) sparkle-lions.

though uh, anyone else find it kinda really odd that kovu and kiara hang out as cubs more in this and the gamebreak than in the actual film? are the pc games set in a different timeline? these are the questions that keep me up at night.

one of the most technically impressive games to spawn out of rpg maker 2000, and probably one of the best fangames ever. yes, the story is basically a self-insert version of stardust crusaders, but really there's nothing wrong with that premise and it's very well-executed here. don't tell me you wouldn't want a stand of your very own.

still has a few flaws and might only be of interest to die-hard jojo fans (specifically those who don't mind the long trek of stardust crusaders), but still very much worth playing in my opinion. don't let the gameboy-esque color scheme fool you, there's a lot of love and content packed into The 7th Stand User.

clayman, i salute you!

i had a crappy 3g tracfone during pokego's heyday so i was never able to experience it proper, but man this was the closest we were to world peace at the time.

wasn't until 2022 that i got a phone actually capable of playing pokego now and. yeah it's okay. it's a fun lil time-waster and it's interesting to see what landmarks are in my city that i wouldn't have otherwise noticed before.

but man i run out of bag space super easily and this is not helped by the fact that i live within walking distance of a pokestop. i'm on a budget niantic, i can't give you all my money just to upgrade my bag.

honestly the ideal way to play crash1 honestly.

even then, i can't give this more than half a star because of ONE reason: crash's pillbox collision makes the bridge levels absolute hell.

at least the save system is better and they tweaked the requirements for gems.
