Golden Snitch
If you’ve ever played Killer Queen Black, the snail mechanic reminds me a lot of the golden snitch. It is kind of fun to have something that you might not have most players paying attention to become a pivotal component of gameplay. Kind of like stealing bases in baseball. But as an actual sport it’s kind of dumb, I agree about it just being a kids book, don’t think about it too hard.
Man I wish this game’s servers were still around.
My local arcade has a cabinet and it’s amazing.
Statistically smallish chance it’s Emporium SF on Divisadero
(Or OG Chicago Emporium) but maybe just the little local spot?!
Disagree, the snail is just a core part of the game that is always there and you need to pay attention to it. It's not a sudden random event like catching an elusive critter
What are you disagreeing with? The golden snitch, as it is, is a core part of Quiddich in that the game literally requires it to be caught to end. In KQB that is not the case. I was more mentioning that while playing, a whole other mechanic can go on. If you think of Killer Queen Black as a snail-riding game, then there are times where the game can end suddenly from queens dying too much, or berries being collected.
Jus that it's better design because more clearly connected to the rest of the gameplay process. It's something anyone can do, and always available as an option to focus on. Rather than a guy wandering around hoping to find the snitch
