Yeah, the swamp sucked. I tried playing this game once several years ago, but didn't finish it; when I came back to it, my last save game was in the swamp. And I figured out why very quickly... It lightens up a bit right after that, but there are several more quite annoying sections to come. No, I think I’ll suggest stabbing myself in the head with an icepick for January’s game instead.

Come on! There's more punishment out there. I have to admit that I just barely made it out of the first section in the factory and then got stumped in the swamp. I figured out what I was supposed to do but couldn't pull it off, and after about 20 tries I realized I could be doing something else. Kudos for actually finishing it, though. I'm 0/2 on that count with VGC, but I'm determined to get through something we play. So you don’t want to suggest Oddworld 2 for January’s VGC game? Come on! There’s more punishment out there.
