The Piano Player and His Pards

     Hey, everyone. I proceeded in my new game tonight. I am speaking of Plants vs. Zombies 2. I'd like to tell you a little about this third and final 'world' of the Wild West. If you look at the picture you'll see that you have a new plant which shoots lightning bolts and electrocutes the enemy. There is also a plant which slings water melons. When you feed them plant food they just explode pink melon stuff all over the place. Very cool. Oh, yeah, the zombies skeletel structure shows up when they are shocked. See above.
     My personal favorite in this world is the piano player zombie. He comes rolling out with his piano and a funny hat. He plays some great old west type of tunes. When he does, all the other zombies dance and switch lanes . This messes up your defensive formations.There are times when it gets so chaotic that I just sit and watch, a good way to lose.
    There are also some gunslinger zombies who wear ponchos like in Clint Eastwood movies. If you shoot away their poncho, you see that they are wearing a metal breastplate. It is tough to penetrate.
     But that's not all the wonders of this place. Nooooooo.There are midget zombies who ride on bulls. The bulls throw them over your fighters unless you have a 'tall wall nut' in the way. (Not shown.) There is a zombie with red hair that carries chickens around. He has about 5 or 6 with him. They go nuts when he drops them. They peck all your stuff and run around like... a chicken with its head cut off. Ha, ha. The lightning plant works good on the chickens.
    So, with lightning bolts, chickens, bulls, piano players, dancing zombies, noise, confusion and everything else, this game is a riot of activity. It overpowers your senses, almost. For a jaded old dude like me to laugh out loud is something, but that's what I did when the piano man came out. Billy Joel he was not, but it was great. Don't get me wrong, I really liked the music.
    From the author's green retreat, I'm CE Wills.
P.S. I almost forgot about the miner zombie. This old codger has a stick of dynamite in his back pocket. Moreover, it is lit. (Please don't try this at home.) So, when the dynamite blows, the guy goes sailing to the back of your defenses, where he wreaks havoc by walking back toward his own guys and destroying your plants. If you have a pea shooter that shoots in both directions you'll be okay.

Shadowgun: Crushing The Driller On Level 4

Hey, everyone. Let's talk about the game called Shadowgun, the I-Pad game with which I have a love-hate relationship. Most of you who made it past the evil Cyber Lobster are doubtless locked in a death struggle with the Driller at the end of level 4. At this point you have been in the cave for a long time. The Driller breaks through the rock wall and chases you through the tunnel as you try to shoot out the green lights which slows the Driller down. If you are slick enough to shoot out all the lights and emerge from the cave, a rolling door crashes on the Driller and crushes his aggravating carcass. I have tried and failed to beat the Driller at least 250 times. I hate the Driller to the heights and depths my soul can reach. I hate it like a plague. I hate it with intensity of feeling. I hate it like a rich man hates taxes. Excuse me, I got carried away. We had a big dinner here at the green retreat and my friend Trevor was ...

Faerie In a Glass Jar

Hey, everyone. Sometimes gaming can be high-pressure. Take tonight, for instance. I was playing the excellent puzzle game titled 4 Elements #2. I have already done a review of it so I won't attempt to do so again. You have to match symbols and use 'power-ups' to get molten lava to flow around a board and bring life back to a faerie world. Cool. That's what I do. I'm into it. There are also a variety of mini-puzzles such as hidden objects and even putting together a jigsaw puzzle. Hey, when I get in trouble I call Carley. Anyway, tonight, Carley wasn't around when a crisis struck. I was confronted with a faerie in a glass jar. She was crying for help. She said that she was running out of air. Every minute or two she would rattle the jar. In order to free her, I had to find all these objects and use them. Like there were some missing books. Then there was the pieces of a torch. When I found them I could light all the candles. I found the pieces of ...

You're Aiming the Missile Where?

Hey, everyone, out there in game-land. The number 1 game on the friendly neighborhood app store is Call of Duty: Strike Team . No wonder, because it is a terrific game. The farther I play, the cooler it gets. But before I get to that, what are all these numbers indicating on my gun? Has to be some sort of ammo indicator for the clips, I guess. either that or some of my compadres has trouble doing his math homework. Whatever. Hey. Check out the picture of me hitching a ride on an enemy truck so that my team can infiltrate a missile silo. Do you like the face mask? I bought it at a store called Fashions by Bane. Ha, ha. (Batman Reference) On this mission, my team was assisted by a Russian Spetsnaz squad. How's that for detente, comrade? These Spetsnaz guys make everything fun. What I mean is this. We shoot bunches of enemies and get into the bowels of the silo. We get to the gantry where the missile is (Pictured above) and we see that the rad...
