Congratulations!! You have entered the Konami Code!! You now have 30 lives!!

Not really... You've just stumbled upon my inner geek and something that I thought was a bit of fun! I will update and add pages periodically, but the existence of them will only be known to you and I... and the millions of other people who once played a Konami video game!!

Cryptex

This "special" code has crept into society and now made it into websites and even onto the iPhone! Even games totally unconnected to Konami use it as an Easter Egg tribute to days of yore. This is my second effort in that regard...


Construct

Construct Token

This time around, we have a return to the Talisman Timescape! An expansion that some feel is an abomination, and that others (myself included) thought was fun, but probably not really suited to the world of Talisman.

If there are to be mechanical devices in Talisman, I would prefer them to be of magical design, although I could certainly cope with steam-powered or clockwork items. Hoverboards and mining lasers are really a step too far!

However! My favourite character from that expansion, and one which I adopted as my video gaming avatar over the years, is the Cyborg. An unfeeling powerhouse who stomps his way around the board, smashing all in his way!

As you will know, there are similar things now in Talisman, in the form of the Construct Enemies. I have taken the idea that they are guardians of some sort, whose basic function is to see off adventurers, and added a few bits from here and there that I thought were thematic. I hope you like "him" and I look forward to some more Konami-based shenanigans in the near future!
