Players can elect to summon "cartoony" versions of bats, bombs, guns, and flamethrowers. These types of items can be used to destroy objects or even other summoned items (e.g., a club can be used to hit an animal; steak can be attached to a baby to attract lions; rockets can be lobbed at a man).

QUICKBLOG! - And suddenly, I'm drawn to purchase Bangai-O Spirits. Like Right NOW.
Tubatic | 2:08 PM on 11.18.2008 7 comments




So I was sitting in the dentist's office yesterday, reading Ebony magazine before moving on to Auto somethign or other, and I noticed something strange in their Christmas gift suggestion section.

Bangai-O Spirits for the DS.

I think to myself "That's an odd choice." I'd think Ebony would go for something really mainstream, like Horse Adventure, or Pokeman. But Bangai-O? Its not like it came with a description and a review. Just the box art, the name, and "Available at retailers". maybe they heard abotu the value of 150 levels, plus a level editor, and figured it was a great value.

I dunno. But now, I'm kinda obsessed with the idea of it. Even faced with the unspoken charge of picking up Left 4 Dead like all the cool kids, I'm a thousand times more drawn to just go out and pick up Bangai-O Spirits. I like shooters, and a level editor for a shooter is really inticing.

When a feeling like this takes hold, what can one do but submit and see where it gets you?

Meanwhile, I haven't touch my last impulse DS buy, Hotel Dusk, in months.

i dloves me some mechs though.

QUICKBLOG! defies convention. QUICKBLOG! says fuck yo dibs. QUICKBLOG! refues to believe this really has any bearing on the purchasing of Left 4 Dead this week.

buy it, it's awesome. If you like 2d shooters you'll love it. 150 levels is a lot and there's also the really cool level editor in it. Also why not get L4D and Bangi-O spirits?

Cereally . . . buy it! You will have to be a little patient with it as you get to the harder levels and you get exploded in a matter of seconds if you don't know what you're doing, but it is a highly rewarding and intense game!

I played some of this game at PAX. It was pretty much impossible until I realized that R was the "Destroy Everything" button. Although it meant that it was more like a puzzle game than a shooter. Still, it's an awesome game, I bought a copy but haven't been able to play it since my DS is broken.
