PLANET-HOPPING RANDOM REVIEWby TrillethI've been travelling a lot this week, between looking for new planets (a bust), playing games (less of a bust), and just being a social butterfly. But when I went to write up my article tonight, I discovered that all my notes were mixed up. So you're getting a review of an even dozen random planets. I'll even tell you which ones. I just can't tell you which ones each part of the review is about. PLANETS:
1) There's a cute but severe desk receptionist. Needs to work on her people skills. I love the hot tub, even if it did take a bit of wandering to find it. WATER FEATURE: 9. PEOPLE: 2 2) Lots of things are covered up or shut down and it's nearly devoid of people. Might be water in the chasm. No shopping at all. SHOPPING: 0. BED: 7 (plenty of options, usually covered up, though) 3) Surfing, travel agents, pretty flowers... it's almost like home. WATER FEATURE: 10. BED: 3. 4) I kept ending up in odd places without warning and all the sand got in my shoes. There might've been someone here once, but I didn't see anyone now. WATER FEATURE: -1 (sand! sand! sand!). SHOPPING: 1 (I had to buy new shoes when I left) 5) Not sure about the elevator music or all the off-limits places. I'm a licensed travel writer, after all! I should get free reign. Ooh, look. I'm immortalized. I forgive everything. PEOPLE: 7 (see last note). 6) Does pigeon food count as shopping? Nice fountain, though. My poor shoes... SHOPPING: 5. WATER FEATURE: 8 (new shoes) 7) The one-way directions got me lost more often than not, but there was something almost primal about this place. PEOPLE: 7. BED: 1 (I fell asleep on a slideway briefly) 8) The residents are certainly very colorful and seem somehow familiar. Oooh, a gift shop! SHOPPING: 9. PEOPLE: 7 9) Residents here scurry around an awful lot. May be a little lacking in the brains department? WATER: 0 (I think they'd all drown). PEOPLE: 4 (on a technicality) 10) Got a bit distracted by the mud wrestling. Need a shower. Think the people I ran into were more interested in drinking and... well, betting... than talking. SHOPPING: 5 (had to buy new clothes). PEOPLE: 5 11) Drizzly, bare, drab... did he just point a weapon at me? I'm not staying here, even if there is a bed. BED: 7 (it's there, but I'm not using it). WATER FEATURE: 4 (does rain even count?) 12) Is there really this much junk in the whole universe, let alone one planet? The costumes are a bit much. Hmph. I got lost, too. But if in doubt, just say whatever comes to mind first! SHOPPING: 3. PEOPLE: 7 Want to find out to which planets my notes refer? Send me your guesses to Trilleth@gmail.com. Hint: Best way to figure it out? Go visit these twelve older planets, most of which have been in the game as long as I've been here. :) Happy sleuthing! |
