Yahtzee’s become a bit of a household name on the internet recently, what with his fast-talking, hard-hitting video review series that’s making enemies of videogame fanatics everywhere. The sad side-effect is that everyone’s forgotten what he used to do: make adventure games. We haven’t forgotten, and neither has he, apparently, as evidenced by the latest news post on his site – yes, I realise I’m late to the party, but this is important, so listen up.

I could say I’m posting about this because we like the games so much, but I’d be lying. I could pretend to like the games so much because Chzo sounds so much like Chozo and Metroid is the only greatest videogame series ever, but I’d be lying. I could claim that the reason for the posting is that somebody landed a cheque in my mailbox together with the announcement, but, alas, I’d be lying. I’m actually posting about this because he used the word ‘folderol’. Yes, I’m shallow like that.

Now, whatever the reason you’re reading this, just know that all the old Chzo Mythos special edition games (and 1213) are now available for free. No monies at all. A good reason to replay them, or simply try them if you haven’t already.
