Tiny Spoilers in this post. Very tiny, though.

Been playing it nonstop, but I'm kinda stuck on some parts, like finding the last two Homsartifacts ((only cinder block I can think of is the one in Strongbadia... least I think it's a cinder block))

But other than that, I am loving it so muccchhh~ Homsar just became more awesome oh man.

I just beated the game. This one was truly awesome, it was actually hard at the end! Plot was good, soo many inside jokes and it was just a more well put together game.

Oh, and I think two artifacts are underground, I forgot the third one, but the forth one you trade the organ on the black market.

I think the 3rd one is in a box. It's the power strip.

oohh, okay. cause I got the one by the mailbox and the one by the stick. I should have remembered Bubs with his artifact. That cave painting threw me off. Derp.

In a box, eh? LOOKS LIKE I GOTTA RELOOK AT THEM BOXES.

Also is it bad that I actually find Math Kickers REALLY fun? Istill need the second page, but oh man I should not find an educational game fun

... then again, I'm probably the only person that thought that the DOS version of "Mario is Missing" was fun 8|

All of the artifacts are underground. Have you used the metal detector in Strong Badia?

Ah, one thing I noticed, Intentional or not, was that the game no longer lets you know if youve found all the buried stuff in an area. I miss that.

It is OK. I kinda liked the last one better. It seemed to flow a bit more smoothly. This one was a bit choppier and parts are inconsistent.
Spoiler WARNING:

Things like the cheat defecting from strong bad and strong mad to the KOT seems unlikly.
Poopsmith actually being violent to someone else.
KoT outsmarting anyone.

Except for one that Bubs has.

I liked this one, but overall I preferred the first one. Though I must admit that Homsar kicked butt in this episode. :homsar: There was also more Strong Sad, which is always good. Though after you beat the game and talk to Coach Z, that's just a bit too creepy, even for Coach Z. The writers went overboard there. :coachz:

Unfortunately they still make it so if you miss something in the game, there are some things you can't go back and get. After you beat the game, you can't go back and get all of the Strong Sad insults if you missed some.

I noticed they actually said Crap in this one. Semi-foul language for a game.

Um, the thing with the cheat going from Strong Bad to Strong Mad to the KOT isn't that surprising.
The Cheat wanted to have his own nation just like EVERYONE else, but Strong Bad won him over with the pin. He and Strong Mad have always been best friends, so he wasn't really defecting from Strong Bad. Also, I'm pretty sure Teh Cheat joined :kot: because Strong Mad was squeezing him REALLY HARD whilst everyone was lingering around Marzistar.
Also, why would the poopsmith not be violent to someone else? How is that out of place? He's never done anything that was very anti-violent. Now we know he's apparantly a vicious fighter.
That, and the KOT's plan wasn't really too complicated. It's quite conceivable that the KOT made that plan.

The game is awsome though. Love it. Five times better than the last one. Just much more to it, and quite funnier. I do hope that the next one is still good though...

I enjoyed this one more than the first, which was itself pretty dang good! I think part of what did it to me was the unusual (for H*R) source of humour: jokes on global politics, international relations and diplomacy, in which I have a fair bit of interest. "Union of Soviet Socialist Repubricks" has to be one of the best country names ever. The Maps and Minions game at the end confused me for quite a while, though. Oh well. It'd be a 5/5 if only it weren't still a bit short; as it is, it's definitely on the high end of 4/5 in my book.

There are plenty of instances of crap in Homestar Ruiner. Just a few:

"Whoah! What the crap was that? "
"That's a great idea! With the power of Total Load Total Energy Enhancing powder, I'll transform myself into an athletic juggernaut! Let's just read the warning label... "fits of rage"... fine. "Excessive back hair" ... cool. "Mysterious pants issues"!? What the crap? Why don't people tell me these things before I send away for free samples! "
"Ok, this is an item that I am going to keep. That means that it's going into my "inventory", or "collection of surprising useful useless crap.""

I thought this game was 100 times better than the last one. I loved everything about it and felt it was much more wroth my moolah this go-round. The Homsar stuff was ESPECIALLY funny to me. They should give Homsar his own toon after this, I like this other side of him haha. Plus the little board game thing at the end was a cool little surprise. I thought this would have made a stellar toon all by itself... in addition to being a game... I think it's one of the best things TBC have released in a long while. Purty awesome!

Took me 4 1/2 hours to beat without cheating. I think that's pretty good for one of these episodes. I dunno about this next episode though, i'm thinking of the little games that could be played and it sounds promising... but who knows.

I also liked the Funmachine game and TGS stuff in this episode. This was just perfection.

I'm not even completely done yet, and it's hilarious! I think I almost died laughing when homsar starting speaking english in that "voice".

I haven't gotten it yet because:

1. I don't have enough Wii Points.
2. I don't have enough space on my Wii.

Once I fix all this, I'll get it, and the upcoming one, too.

i consider this episode to be one of my favourites .i loved the awexome board game .when i played the demo before i purchased the full game i thought that the whole quest was gonna be the coolest adventure ever but as i found out it became too repetitive and started to fade only just retaining my full focus or maybe it was because it was 4 in the morning either or. overall i liked this episode alot and almost give it full marks but my favourite is 8-bit is enough .all you guys and girls who havent checked it out are total idiots and should get buying right away.
