unlabelledView post →I have found the interdimensional nexus that connects all worlds in Funi Racoon Game. This involves going to a world adjacent to Norwich where a Moai statue owns a chicken farm, holding the correct amount of chickens, and then jumping past the skybox until you hit a tree floating in the sky.
unlabelledView post →I was wondering if Salamander III was gonna be too easy because it's pretty generous with extra lives and the game lets you pick your power-ups back up after you die, and then I died to the Moai cement mixer five times in thirty seconds and realized no, this'll still take me some work.

unlabelledView post →My husband got a gift card to our FLGS and we found this older game called Rapa Nui there. One of our 5yo’s is super into the Moai (and other monuments), so when he saw the cover he immediately wanted the game. (1/?) boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/31...
unlabelledView post →#RandomGameSaturday Konami Krazy Racers (Game Boy Advance, 2001) A wacky kart racing game starring various Konami mascots like Goemon, Power Pro-kun, Dracula and Moai. Supports up to 4-player multiplayer via link cable. It's better than Mario Kart Super Circuit, imo.
unlabelledView post →I've been jamming it for a while now and it's basically the starfox I've wanted for ages now lol Plays damn good on PC and Steam Deck. ALSO! Moai spotted so 10/10 game 🗿
unlabelledView post →Lykke Studios’ latest game is a sticker-jigsaw with a series called “Camp with Moai” in which a Moai enjoys the great outdoors with his girlfriend (seemingly the Venus of Willendorf). My kid loves this so much that she keeps saying “Camp! Moaaaiii!” in a strange hollow voice, and I’m losing my mind
unlabelledView post →It's time to VOTE on the next Sunday Sauce! This time it's obscure Japanese doujin games! Will you vote for the Joe Higashi Alligator? Or maybe the cool Moai Head guy? Or will you pick a game based on how funny it's title is? (Probably that one) 1️⃣Fuuka Taisen 2️⃣Metal Blade 3️⃣Booby Tales 4️⃣Neclos
unlabelledView post →Dream I had: I was in a fighting game tournament, I was maining the Moai with long arms. I was playing this character like a zoner.

unlabelledView post →Honestly even getting to play any variant of Moai-Doo-Wop would do that to me. How can they make a game about moai soo bad likeee
unlabelledView post →DS totally depends on the game cause you can get barelys on Lockstep and Frog Hop but Moai Doo-Wop is insane for no reason
unlabelledView post →You heard about this "Mario" game? It's not bad! Bit heavy on the Chinese stereotypes and the flying sections are a weird inclusion but...huh? No, this definitely says "Mario" on it, see? Got the Nintendo seal and everything! Even has the iconic funny Moai guys! wackgameboy.zone/2026/04/25/s...
unlabelledView post →Tonight I finished a #PuzzlePlatformer for #Famicom called Moai-kun. This #Konami game featured a cute little #Moai (like from Gradius). Most stages were easy enough but some got REALLY tough. Overall it was a lot of fun. Check it out if you're into puzzle games. | twitch.tv/grescokit | #RetroGaming
unlabelledView post →1/2 My favourite franchise turned 40, unbelievable🤯 Since i fell in love with Gradius III on the Snes, I became obsessed. Always dreamt of making my own #GRADIUS Game. I would have named it Gradius Gold. #M2STG生放送 #GRADIUSORIGINS #GOLDSAEBEL #MOAI #SHMUPSARESHOOTERS

Day 307) Rabbit Hole by ShortCake_Cafe & Moai Music A free to play 2D roguelike shooter where you play as Disc, gathering weapons Nd making your way to the bottom of the "Rabbit Hole" I'm not a big shooter fan, but it's satisfying and fast paced.
unlabelledView post →Showing my young ward photographs of sculptures of Gods to demonstrate the reality of stone effigies (as there is a Moai in his roblox game) and he identified a penis. Matter of factly I said yes, bodies were represented in their entirety, & keep scrolling, then see the Priapus mural & stop sharing.

unlabelledView post →I am truly a creature if I do not get filtered. Moai-kun is a Famicom puzzle game that requires execution. I really enjoyed it1 Disclaimer: Screenshot is from the 14s.
unlabelledView post →Today's Map Tap game has reminded me how I've always wanted to see the Moai statues on Easter Island. Just been reading how once carved they were 'walked' into their positions by humans dragging them along slowly. Just incredible feats of engineering. It must have taken *ages* 🗿
unlabelledView post →Gradius (NES/Famicom, 1986) A home conversion of Konami’s 1985 arcade game shooter, that sold a million copies worldwide, and was the first game that Konami published for the NES. The Vic Viper ship and the Moai Head enemies appeared frequently in sequels, spin-offs, and cameos.
unlabelledView post →This game constantly cannibalizes itself for the sake of not even spectacle but a very vague sense of vertigo. Choosing a target gets you extreme close-up and camera movement. Every menu layer has a trigger for an angle/zoom/dolly switch. It's a Moai GIF: the game.
unlabelledView post →Can I be vulnerable here today? Moai Doo-Wop is not that bad of a game
unlabelledView post →Moai Doo-Wap is, to this day, the only minigame I've never perfected in any Rhythm Heaven/Paradise game.
unlabelledView post →Hello guys , im creating a Precision Platformer about a moai and some cool ass shoes,The game is currently in a very early stage, but you can try it out on my Discord if you want discord.gg/SGbnUwn #gamedev #moai #ThisGoesHard
unlabelledView post →Hey at least Moai Doo Wop 1 is okay for where it is in the game. Moai Doo Wop 2 deserves nothing less than the infernal pits.
unlabelledView post →Moai Doo-Wop (DS): it’s soooo janky, idk who thought light tap was a good input, but it makes this so stressful to play unless you’re hammering on your touch screen. the cues are fine, but it ends up feeling more like a memory game than a rhythm game and that sucks.
unlabelledView post →Which Konami game had the Moai tank? Gradius?
unlabelledView post →Game #7: Gradius Price: $7.18 (Total $37.37) The shooter that set the new standard. Great graphics, tons of power ups, memorable music, and MOAI HEADS🗿 Seriously this game was great. There were a ton of other Konami games I could have picked but this one is a solid title and it fits the budget.
unlabelledView post →Just played through Salamander 3 from the new Gradius Origins game and its full of mixed Gradius & Salamander/Lifeforce callbacks and nostalgia with some crazy bullet hell halfway through. Also M2 made the BIGGIEST Moai boss in a Gradius game that's so massive they turn it into 3 phase boss fight 🙃💀
unlabelledView post →Posting another character design for my upcoming game "Freakoidz". His name is Tyr, I really love the Moai statues and wanted to come up with a character that had a look similar to them. He is warrior poet who wanders the land defending the weak. #Freakoidz #Concept_Art #Moai #JRPG #Drip #Warrior
unlabelledView post →slime/muck version of Hexus. the Moai statues of Easter Island. those are two i've gotten from folks i know. i don't play the game, but i know how to play it.
unlabelledView post →Moai Doo-Wop has always been one of my least favorite levels. There are times where controls for that one didn't respond properly. I tap, and the game treats it like a hold, ruining my perfect.

unlabelledView post →Which characters were you & your opponents picking for Gameboy Netto Toshinden & Gen Mortal Kombat II? I know the former has a few rather lopsided match ups. Did the Super Game Boy custom border w/ the Moai head statues & characters appear on screen?
unlabelledView post →Things I liked - Star Fox - Rosalina and Peach being badasses - Different power ups and fight choreography - super obscure background characters (ex. the Moai from super Mario land) - R.O.B. - Mr. Game & Watch
unlabelledView post →It's like They Live except when you view the game on a Mac you see their true Easter Island Moai heads.
unlabelledView post →More images I created for a podcast that no one should listen to. I'm proud of some of the nonsense I created. The Easter Island image came from a conversation where someone confused Moai with moè (萌え). I also like the idea of the BBC releasing a video game based off Last of the Summer Wine.
unlabelledView post →It had colourful 3D graphics with wacky character models and I remember there were Moai statues in the game...

unlabelledView post →Moai Doo-Wop 2: i’m sorry guys, it’s just not that good. the “doh”s are still pretty janky even after having played this game a *lot* and the call and response is so long that it’s more a memory game than a rhythm game. the night section is also really easy, which means it drags a lot near the end
