Ishambard<p>I love Banjo Kazooie, I think it was a great series that hit an unfortunate bump in the road (hah!).</p><p>But one game I never played was the <a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/GBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GBA</span></a> game Grunty's Revenge. Years ago, I watched Scykoh play it on YouTube, and I always thought it looked like a cool game.</p><p>Set as a mid-quel between Kazooie and Tooie. Grunty's spirit is put inside a mechanical suit, and she goes back in time to stop Banjo and Kazooie from meeting. So Mumbo sends Banjo back in time to seek help from Bottles' ancestor and a "handsome young shaman" to find Kazooie and defeat Gruntilda. As a premise, this is quite brilliant. Appropriate levels of peril.</p><p>Gameplay wise... Bit of a mixed bag, the perspective leads to some issues with depth perception, making it a tiny bit difficult to navigate or make a few jumps here or there. It also leads to a few rude item placement, hiding them behind things.</p><p>(1/2)</p><p><a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/BanjoKazooie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BanjoKazooie</span></a> <a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/RetroGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RetroGaming</span></a> <a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/GameBoyAdvance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GameBoyAdvance</span></a></p>
