TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #013: Grinding for Thanatos

It looks like I'm going to have to do some more grinding to get my levels up a bit if I want to get past this part of the game. Oh, goodie, just what I always wanted.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #012: Hunting for Jemas

This didn't go exactly the way I thought it would.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #011: August And April

Seems like I've only been getting to this in months that begin with the letter “A” lately. I'm hoping to change that, but we'll see.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #010: Fire Grinding

There are so many ways this could have gone better. For example, not letting it sit for four months between issues.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #009: Secret of Undertale

This is going to cover at least two sessions just because I didn't want to waste the issue title on what would have been a short one otherwise.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #008: Grandma's Castle

My, it's been awhile since I've done any SoM, hasn't it?

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #007: Through The Woods, At Least

I haven't exactly wasted the last month. I just haven't done anything worth an update to these Text Play series.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #006: Another Haunted Forrest

This one's quite a bit more difficult than the one in Final Fantasy IX.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #005: Tampico

Or Tropicana, which is a little expensive for my tastes.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #004: A Quick Round Trip

One last of these before away from my computer and consoles for a few days.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #003: Getting The Girl

There's a couple ways this could have gone.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #002: Kinda-Sorta On Our Way

I took a couple detours here.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #001: Batface and Super Gai

I was going to go for a more political joke in the title, but between what I've been doing in the FF9 playthrough and what I'll get to in a minute, I'm sure there's enough of that around here.

TEXT PLAY: Secret of Mana (Squaresoft; SNES, 1993): Issue #000: Introduction

So I'm doing another Mana game, and this time it's kind of a secondary.

TEXT PLAY: Final Fantasy VIII (SquareSoft, 1999; Playstation): Issue #045: Wrap Up Video

Almost like the VH1 video show.

TEXT PLAY: Final Fantasy VIII (SquareSoft, 1999; Playstation): Issue #044: Eyes Off Me

Because I'm not going to get to talk about the song in the context of the game.

TEXT PLAY: Final Fantasy VIII (SquareSoft, 1999; Playstation): Issue #043: Have Rocket, Will Travel...

Something tells me this is not going to be the Space Odyssey we're supposed to take it for.

TEXT PLAY: Final Fantasy VIII (SquareSoft, 1999; Playstation): Issue #042: Missing Something

I've gotta be missing something here. I've just gotta be.

TEXT PLAY: Final Fantasy VIII (SquareSoft, 1999; Playstation): Issue #041: The... Borg...?

Well, the Galbadians, anyway.

TEXT PLAY: Final Fantasy VIII (SquareSoft, 1999; Playstation): Issue #040: Soakin' Ma Feetz
