The Fourth Day of Sintaxmas

I've reached the conclusion that people on the internet talk about Star Wars too much. I hate to encourage such things, but, well. Sintax started it, so here we are! This one is called Xing Qiu Da Zhan 2 - Ke Long Ren Zhan Yi (星球大战2-克隆人战役) and... I don't know what's going on with that title screen.

The Third Day of Sintaxmas

well that engine is back, who'd have thought it? yep it's another Super Mario Bros clone, this time starring Harry Potter - it's the game I'll call (for shortness) Harry Boy. For less shortness you could call it Ha Li Xiao Zi Di Er Bu - Mi Shi De Mi (哈利小子第二部-密室的秘), which the English version translates as "Harry Boy the second edition: The secretx of the chamber of secrets"

The Second Day of Sintaxmas

day 2 brings the first new game of this little selection - I've been referring to it as "navy game" but it tells me its real name is Hai Zhan Qi Bing (海戰奇兵). it's a strategy game, about, you know, boats and stuff. Cart provided by Qiezei!

The First Day of Sintaxmas

So! Our first game is: Shin Sangokumusou 2, or 真三國無雙2, one of Sintax's various takes on the Dynasty Warriors series.

A version of this is dumped, but this one has a nice intro that the existing dump doesn't. It's a sequel to a generally well-regarded earlier Sintax game, and improves quite a bit on its predecessor. if you haven't played this already, you should!

The 12 Days of Sintaxmas

hey! well! I have a bunch of Sintax stuff sitting around now and I've worked out I can just about stretch it over twelve days, so... what to do with it? given the time of year there's only one thing I *can* do.

starting tomorrow I'm going to kick off the 12 DAYS OF SINTAXMAS - a new Sintax dump every day until Christmas Day! hopefully!

(okay technically the twelve days of Christmas are Christmas and the eleven following days, not the eleven leading up to it, but this isn't Christmas! it's Sintaxmas.)

coming up tomorrow... how to unify China by beating people up.
