Super Replay – Tail Of The Sun

Back in March, we ran an episode of Replay that featured a Roulette game that far outshone the main game. I was pretty fascinated by my brief experience with Tail of the Sun, so much so that I made sure it would be our next Super Replay game. Unlike our previous Super Replays, we weren't entirely sure what the gameplay or endgame consisted of in this caveman title. All we knew is that we needed to kill mammoths so we could stack up their tusks, creating a ladder to the sun. What followed is one of the weirdest gaming experiences we've ever had.

You can watch our complete playthrough below. I play the game as Reiner watches, and we have a few guests drop by to join in on the fun.

UPDATE: Check out the awesome Tail of the Sun cake that a family of Replay fans brought by our office!

wooooooo. amazing episode though the game is dull to look at the made up story and reactions will keep me coming back over and over.

HOLD ON, im watching episode 7 and there is a eye and nose to the north, hands to the left and right, then in the center they are making a GIANT BONER. they just need to go south to find the feet.

by Dark_Defender_ Monday, June 27, 2011 at 07:13 PM

What a weird choice for a Super Replay, which could only mean that the commentary will be GOLD!
by Ian Richardson Monday, June 27, 2011 at 07:19 PM

yeh! sweet, so excited to watch this. Though I wish you would post them every day instead of every other day. But thats such a small complaint when another awesome super replay is concerned.
by PropagandaPanda Monday, June 27, 2011 at 07:21 PM
