MOAAAR TELLTALE ADVENTURES |
The following post is part of a series of posts that are published every Sunday to update readers on what Mark G has been up to with respect to finishing off games on his "Pile of Shame". The games to target are picked by Choicest Games contributors Choona, Luke and Lanna. As I'll be talking about my progress through these games, there may be spoilers ahead, especially for games containing a narrative. Consider yourself warned.
The Walking Dead: Michonne
- Picked by Lanna
- Percentage Complete = 100%
Anyway, if you want to learn more about what I thought, check out the review.
Minecraft: Story Mode
- Picked by Lanna
- Percentage Complete = 4%
The Testament of Sherlock Holmes

- Percentage Complete = 25%
Battlefield 1
- Picked by Lanna

Company of Heroes 2
- Picked by Luke

It took me 45 minutes to complete mission 12 in Company of Heroes 2 (the Battle for Poznan). I had lots of help from an AI ally at the start of the mission, perhaps a bit too much considering he was taunting me on how slow I was for half of the game. Eventually, you have to do the mission alone though as his army pulls out and you also have limited time to capture the citadel. Thankfully, using the forces I started the game with along with a generous dose of conscripts was enough to complete the mission (you start off with an ISU-152, heavy mortar crew, engineers and two SU-76s). I also made liberal use of the IL-2 Sturmovik strafing run ability - that saved my arse many times.
Mission 13 is next which actually takes place on German home soil. Not long until Berlin...
World of Goo
- Picked by Choona
- Percentage Complete = 90%
I finally finished the "scales level" that I got stuck on; the solution involved building a more stable base and somehow building up from that worked - or at least gave me just enough time before the whole structure toppled over to get a few goo balls into the exit. The final couple of missions for Chapter 4 were amusing and involved delivering a lot of spam in order to destroy a corporation. Monty Python would be proud...
I'm now on the epilogue and managed to complete the first mission through sheer luck - I managed to float the goo ball structure to the exit with balloons, but I'm pretty sure you're meant to make a bridge there instead - oh well, whatever works 😊.
