Welcome to The GameTZ Game Club! This is my attempt at forming an easy to get into book club type thing, but with games! Anybody, and everybody, is welcome to join in on the fun!
Rules:
- Each month a random game will be chosen, by myself, for the club to play. Games can vary from the beginning of gaming onward to current-generation platforms. There are no limitations!
- You have from the 1st of every month to 11:59PM EST of the final day to complete the designated game. 100% completion isn't required. The point of the club is to provoke game discussion, as well as give GameTZ veterans and new users a place to mingle!]
- For every game completed, post a picture as proof of your completion Example. This is essential in order to receive your badge and entry to the monthly raffle.
- You will be awarded with a badge each month you complete the game. All badges will be proudly displayed next to your name in the original post. As long as you "roll credits" the game is considered beaten!
- Some months will feature prizes! Every user to complete the game of the month will be thrown into a drawing to win prizes! Users will be assigned a number and users will be randomly generated at some point the following month.
- Prizes will vary. Prizes will beon a donation basis by either me or another member. Sometimes physical, sometimes digital. If you would like to contribute, drop me a message.
- If you don't own the game, and you have access to it on another platform, you're welcome to play it that way. Just make sure that it's the same version, to qualify for the prize or badge.
- If you do not want to participate in the games, but would like to join in on the conversations, please do!
- If you would like to join, just post here, and I'll add you to the list of users. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or criticism, please don't hesitate to post them!

Well, I beat Untitled Goose Game today as my make up. I had beaten it before it was a choice here and got back to it.
That would have been a hard call for me to make. While I was looking forward to the game for quite some time, once I got to playing it, it started to feel more like a chore that I was happy to be done with. I don't know if I could revisit it.

think I agree. I don't think I'd want to go back and replay it either. I did double dip when it came to GamePass, but not a full playthrough. There was a Gamepass Quest for getting 3 achievements, and Untitled Goose Game had a few quick ones.
Alright here's another hint. this game had a TV show adaptation.

UGG was a fitting acronym for the game. I didn't hate it, but it and Tacoma were 100% games I would've never bothered to finish were they not for this thread.

Untitled Goose Game is good web fodder and decent fun if you treat it like a sandbox. It's the main "quest" that was a bit of a bummer.
Stray was the opposite. You're going to feel somewhat limited if you roleplay as "cat gone amok" but the main quest is much better put together.

We love the Goose game in my house. Well my oldest does. I didn't wanna play it either, but it's fun finding new glitches and fun things to do to terrorize the town. We still need to 100% it so maybe we'll do it since it seems to be the current obsession.
I think my favorite is holding onto things that are big (like fertilizer bags, or trash can lids) and dropping them down the well while holding onto them. The game glitches and sends you flying. It's pretty funny. It takes team work to get it done sometimes.

I had a similar experience with UGG and Stray. Both started out charming and then wore out their welcome fairly quickly for me.

Back to the GotM questions, is it a 2D side scroller? I’m assuming it’s probably a Mario game.

Ohhhh, you clever beast, you. We're looking for a sidescrolling "Super Mario" game that doesn't end in Bros. That narrows things down considerably...

Haven't played that in years. At least it is easily accessible since I assume most of us have a Switch and pay for the online service, if you don't already have another way to play it.
With all the Super Mario Maker that I play, because it only uses New Super Mario Bros. physics I sometimes have difficulty adjusting back to the way the 8 and 16-bit Mario games play, so this will be interesting for me.

I've been wanting an excuse to play through it again. I'm not sure if I've ever actually beaten the SNES version since I only played it at the neighbor's, and played through the GBA version as a kid.
That said though, playing it on SNES across the street was honestly one of the things that cemented me as the gamer I am today. I owe it to myself to at least beat the original game. Plus this gives me a chance to see how many of the starworld paths I can find in a normal playthrough
Plus it had to be Mario, why muck up the 1 Mario game a year trend I've had going since 2019. If this was the "FrankTZ Game Club" there would be a LOT more Mario

I've been neglecting this club, and I'll be spending most of December working on my annual video, but I'll figure out a way to squeeze this in. I consider it my favorite Mario game.
I played through the GBA version last year and took it to 100% a few months ago, so it's probably time to beat the OG SNES version.
