unlabelledView post →I reviewed the detestably terrible Skull Island: Rise of Kong. It's so unfinished. The game, not the review. Check it out here: www.thejimquisition.com/post/skull-i...
unlabelledView post →Played the Reanimal demo on Steam earlier. Fantastic intro, smooth controls, intensely creepy atmosphere, audio direction and creature designs. Feels like descending into a demented version of Skull Island - @tarsierstudios.bsky.social going to do it again 👏 Can't wait for the full game!

unlabelledView post →Skull Island: Rise of Kong is a boring, buggy, totally unambitious game that isn't even interesting in its failures. bit.ly/3QnYEzt
unlabelledView post →Seriously, an open-world, tightly produced game about traversing Skull Island and “rising” up the food chain endemic to the island is a no-brainer and there are SO many studios capable of doing it justice. (2)
unlabelledView post →29. I respect the game in KONG: SKULL ISLAND (2017), because I think setting it in that post-WW2 era (man, John C. Reilly was damn good) really works and gives it a lot of flavor.

unlabelledView post →Older doodles, but my Godzilla-themed TTRPG crew and I decided there'd be toxic dodos on Skull Island in our game. We're not there yet, but this is how I predict it will go down, featuring my PC
unlabelledView post →Peter Jackson's King Kong (2005) for PS2 was probably the earliest I can remember being scared from a video game 😂 I remember being so spooked by the Skull Island natives at one part in the game that I stopped playing. The game's whole atmosphere of the game was too much for kid me.

Kongs vs DINOSAURS Lets get a Jurassic Park X Skull Island story, similar to how og Donkey Kong has inspirations from Popeye and King Kong, and Bananza is just Journey to the Center of the Earth.

unlabelledView post →On the other hand, 2023's Skull Island: Rise of Kong is a truly bad game. Badly designed, buggy as heck and full of time-wasting padding to make the game seem long. It was $40 at retail but not even worth playing if you get it for free. It fulfills my definition perfectly!
unlabelledView post →Me, (a Tolkien fanatic) feeling good about life after learning that my favorite video game, "The Lord of the Rings: Gollum" has more current players on steam than "Skull Island: Rise of Kong"
unlabelledView post →12. Skull Island: Rise of Kong. A rare game purchased (on heavy discount!) explicitly to learn the speedrun. Just kinda lost touch with the runner who was going to teach me and other games ended up higher on the priority list. Maybe one day I'll pull this off the backlog.

unlabelledView post →Well I lost Looot, but won Space Bace and then we succeeded without too much hassle in co-op in getting the treasure off Skull Island in Forbidden Island (presumably before King Kong got to us...). #boardgames
unlabelledView post →It's a Generations Geek playlist: We're ape for King Kong! We covered the '33, '76, and '05 Kong films, the Kong X-Box game (based on the '05 film), and some other Kong movies. Then we reviewed Kong: Skull Island, comparing it to Godzilla (2014) and the previous big-three Kong movies.
unlabelledView post →Skull Island: Rise of Kong is a legit broken game but it's so much fun. WR is just over 15 minutes, so I have a little ways to go, but I know where I can gain that time. I'm so excited for the growth of this run and I'll be looking forward to helping route an All Bosses category!
unlabelledView post →the new video game Skull Island: Rise of Kong looks so bad that I'm wondering if it's actually deliberate now. I feel like every youtuber, streamer, and b-movie watcher is going to be picking it up just for the laugh factor. and honestly? That rules
unlabelledView post →When I was 4, there was a board game called (I think) Skull Island, and its commercial featured a scary, realistic skull zooming in from a dark background. I was terrified of skeletons for years after that and they featured in my worst nightmares.

unlabelledView post →I don't disagree with the animation. Studio Mir stepped up their game after Skull Island (which had very stiff animation in my opinion, but it might have been a budget issue).
unlabelledView post →I don't think good intentions mean a game isn't bad. Certainly people are too quick to call a game bad when it's really just okay, but truly bad games do exist. I'm talking about the likes of Skull Island: Rise of Kong.
unlabelledView post →Wife Gone... Regret. Skull Island, Rise of Kong! You asked for it! Come hang out as I play the community voted horrible game! I'm sure its not thhaaaaaat bad.... #vtuber #Streaming #Twitch www.twitch.tv/ezroz
unlabelledView post →Plus, it's really sad that the Rise of Kong game is part of Joe Devito's King Kong of Skull Island brand since his Kong books have so much love and craft put into them, and it makes me all the more sadder.

unlabelledView post →It's a pretty light dice game - Yahtzee-style, but you pay grog to re-roll. If you roll skulls, you pay silver to Skull Island; first player to move their ship to Skull Island takes all that silver. You are collecting silver to convert to treasure - six treasures wins the game. Some take-that, too

unlabelledView post →Skull Island is a brand-new Apple ][ game, pushing boundaries with Double Lo Res graphics—a bold and unconventional choice rarely explored by developers in the 80s. It's a true gem for the retro gaming community, and we’re ready to deliver something NEW, authentic, and unforgettable!
unlabelledView post →That said, having just finished Skull Island: Rise of Kong 100%, I can say that if this game had actual polish and a better use of the hub zones, there's fun to be had. Basic enemies not giving xp is kinda tragic though, by the end I didn't even bother with combat. Easy platinum, avoid otherwise
unlabelledView post →I don't think Donkey Kong's been this expressive since Jungle Beat. It couldn't be done like this without him being redesigned. That dodgy Skull Island game wishes it could look like this.
unlabelledView post →Also it was as far as we know, made by a real dev studio. The publisher just randomly decided rather than cancel it, to take a pre-alpha of the game and publish it. It was a new low even for GameMill that not even Skull Island: Rise of Kong could replicate.
unlabelledView post →Skull Island: Rise of Kong... Is it a trash game? Oooh yeah. I'm I having fun playing it?.. ...Yes.....
