2017 Game Review Haiku, #8 – Spring Cleaning

Good morning, Roomba®
Time to clean, get all the trash
Side-splitting rewards

I can’t believe I’m still doing this. I can’t believe I’ll ever stop. These game summaries in chunks of five, seven, and five syllable lines paint pictures in the mind better than any half a dozen descriptive paragraphs I could ever write. Trust me, I’ve tried. Brevity is the place to be. At this point, I’ve done over 200 of these things and have no plans of slowing down. So get ready for another year of haikus. Doumo arigatou gozaimasu.

2017 Game Review Haiku, #7 – Dungeon of Zolthan

Upgrade your powers
Jump twice, dash, fire away
I’m no speedrunner

This haunted landscape
Full of forgotten data
Meets its end, your hands

Left moon for city
Robots here, phone says find Aert
That’s your job, human

2017 Game Review Haiku, #4 – BackDoor Door 1: The Call

Wake up on the moon
Must escape, nowhere–foul phone
Mocks, makes you puzzle

2017 Game Review Haiku, #3 – The Little Lifeform That Could

The smallest microbe
Grows into something grander
I wore hats, traded

2017 Game Review Haiku, #2 – Where is 2017?

Not a point and click
Battle mutated last year
Kill it, triumph, live

2017 Game Review Haiku, #1 – Cactus Blue Motel

Three friends on road trip
Cactus Blue Motel–stop, stay?
Seems perfect, but stuck

2016 Game Review Haiku, #83 – Chimney Presents

Santa needs your help
Bring gifts, avoid ice, holly
Season’s greetings, all

Here we go again. Another year of me attempting to produce quality Japanese poetry about the videogames I complete in three syllable-based phases of 5, 7, and 5. I hope you never tire of this because, as far as I can see into the murky darkness–and leap year–that is 2016, I’ll never tire of it either. Perhaps this’ll be the year I finally cross the one hundred mark. Buckle up–it’s sure to be a bumpy ride. Yoi ryokō o.

2016 Game Review Haiku, #82 – The Wolf Among Us, Episode 5 “Cry Wolf”

Bigby, his true form
Helps bring in the Crooked Man
For justice, hard calls
