"Destroy Red!"

Ever played "Mr. Driller Drill Land?" Originally released on the Gamecube in Japan, it had gotten an "encore" release on modern consoles a few years ago. The last of the main Mr. Driller series, it divided its modes between five themed attractions. From personal experience, I found "The Hole of Druaga" to be the best one. It takes the Dristones of the previous game's scenario mode and infuses it into a themed dungeon-crawler, where you have to find and defeat Druaga by navigating the dungeon floors in search of the key and Druaga. The mode randomly generates the layout of rooms each time, so each playthrough is different.

In this image we have Vale and Hazy playing with the theme. Vale's armor is inspired by the original Gil, while Hazy is dressed like Druaga. Hopefully Vale ("Valegamesh?") has enough red and blue Dristones to combat Hazy; otherwise, he may have to dig quite a bit for some while avoiding her magic tricks.

TONIGHT AT 5 PM CST (so in one hour lol): Im going to check out the PC Engine remake of Namco's classic and foundational (but divisive!) arcade rpg, The Tower of Druaga! We'll be killin slimes and finding secret treasure in a game that helped inspire Zelda!

Nothing like thrusting yourself into a new area to make you feel rather weak! Same enemies, new area, all the pain. But this time, I'll at least have a hammer while I'm trying to find the fountain.

"Namco Dot Graph" was a line of diorama figures released by Banpresto in 2006. Each figure also included a button on its base, which would play audio from the games.

It’s been a long time and I am still proud of myself!

I have slain my arch-nemesis! Tower of Druaga is a historical masterpiece, but anyone who actually beats this game legitimately is either mad, godlike, or an actual masochist.

I beat it... I don’t claim to be godlike... and I’m not mad, just tired...

Something terrible is happening with the Blue Crystal Rod in town! And poor Gil is none the wiser while he's being surrounded by slimes, knights and mimics! Could this be the end for Gil? Well, yes, but not the way you think.
