Description

We can actually play this game now. While we’re surviving the apocalypse, we’re also merging flags, buying scam birds, burning books, digging up a jukebox, alienating our dolphin stepson, going down with the ship, fantasizing about The Captain, becoming a landlubber, accepting forgiveness, not adding Ramsus to our party, confirming reality with Zephyr, forging exactly one legendary weapon, and stealing precious Chu-Chu wares. Ding ding, good job. 00:43 - Intro 03:20 - Snowfield hideout lobby (music sample: "Shevat - The Wind is Calling," from Myth) 14:06 - Man Digging Room 15:44 - Room of Cats / Command Room 18:12 - Room Behind The Bar -OR- O Captain!
