Well this one made me think and make some mistakes!
This series is a best and favourites of picks for games to play on the Nintendo 64.
Starting it off with Banjo Kazooie as a tribute to my father, whom passed away last November 2021 and this game was one of his favourites from back in the day. Roughly 19 or 20 years ago which we all played a lot of and loved.
Heading into Gobi's Valley to get parched in the desert amongst trying to stay our of the sinking quicksand, I have to find this tree some water in order for it to feel alive and grow tall!
But there is plenty more in this level to keep me occupied, things like helping the snake charmer to get the snake out of the basket which once enough eggs are pooped out into the rotating basket, I an use the snake to get the first jigsaw piece.
Next, I find out a couple of things cannot be completed without having the running shoes and that is the molehill for this level, where ever it is.. So it is onto the puzzle game for matching tile pictures and getting the next jigsaw piece.
Gobi the Camel is found! He is seen in a few parts on this level, with this first giving the jigsaw piece and moving to wait in the next location.
Shoot the eggs into the sphinx mouth to raise the pyramid, that is what I have to do for one puzzle on this level. Three times with each platform getting smaller go figure haha.
But it leads to a cool maze with items in it and the witch switch, while also leading to the jigsaw piece waiting at the end of the maze.
As I make my way outside and complete the rings by flying through I end up with the 5th jigsaw piece before finding the molehill in order to unlock those running shoes and continue working on the second set of jiggies!
First one I complete is grabbing the jiggy from the mummy hand as I now have the speed to do so and proceed to complete the scaling the timed run... well first time I end up falling off and having to start over again.. Well that was silly of me! But I get it done the next time which drains the water into the middle moat around that pyramid location, to allow easily getting things at the bottom of that.
After almost dying I have to quickly get health from the beehive before I go back to the starting location and make Gobi give the treesome water so it can grow high and that is the next higgy hooray, almost there!
Of course Gobi is resting in one final spot, so I get an empty honeycomb piece before getting that jiggy but the end is in sight.
I open the sphinx's door by shooting eggs into the nosee to clear its sickness, what is inside? More sphinx's needing to use magic carpets, to be able to shoot eggs into their mouth and get up to the final jinjo for a jiggy then keep getting higher and get that last jigsaw piece!
And last but not least back in Gruntilda's Lair, is flying to above Freezery Peak and grabbing that jiggy I couldn't get without the running shoes.
