Zelda: Link’s Awakening on the GameBoy Color in the mid-90s. I got to the second temple, and was totally stuck - to progress I needed to learn to jump, which I inferred was in this temple, but I just couldn’t figure out where it was.

Wandered all over the available map, which of course was constrained due to lacking the jump skill and other story-driven tools. Nothing.

Finally bought a game guide, which explained to me that I needed to bomb a wall in one room in the second temple to progress. It was indicated by a small crack, a staple in Zelda games but invisible to me in my first experience with the series.

The cherry on top was that by that point, I didn’t have any bombs to break the wall, and I recall that I didn’t have the ability to buy or acquire any and had to restart the game to progress past the point where I was stuck.

After that point, Zelda: Links Awakening became one of my favorite games of my childhood. It is hilarious how much frustration it caused me before that realization.

Their highlights come and go, I find some weeks they have them uploaded by Monday whereas other races don’t get highlights at all. Wasn’t sure if it was related to what network is hosting the race or not. It annoys me compared to F1, NASCAR and IndyCar who usually have their highlights uploaded a few hours after the race.

. Right you are. I don’t have a Facebook account or have the app installed on my phone, yet they are attempting to track data from my camera system app.

Highly recommend DuckDuckGo browser or RethinkDNS for everyone reading this (if you are on Android).

Edit: Also PiHole, though it is a bit more complicated to set up.

Real human senator Ted Cruz, is that you? Is Friv also part of your national program to document skull sizes?

It’s been years, and I see that it contains ads now, but I absolutely loved Super Stickman Golf 1 and 2. It is a simple 2D golf platformer with a ton of courses (at my time of last play you could download like 15 extra courses individually, on top of 6 or so to start). I’m sure it has been ruined by the freemium model, but it was a joy back in the day.

Into the Breach is a perfect game for mobile. Haven’t played it on Android (I have it on my Switch), but it reminds me of playing a ROM of Final Fantasy Tactics on my phone and it was perfect. And that was 10 years ago, so Smartphone technology has come a long way since then.
