Not to be outdone, there’s plenty going on in Ham Town, too: Honeydew walks out of work and straight into the midst of a crime scene
You’ll
find
clues
as
you
explore,
and
sometimes
useful
items
–
we’re
glad
of
the
pair
of
rollerskates
we
find
an
hour
in.
Where
did
the
idea
to
outlaw
melons
come
from?
It’s
a
riff
on
Hog
Town
not
selling
them
in
the
first
game,
Russeau
says.
Asadova:
“The
short
and
simple
answer
is
that
it’s
utterly
ridiculous”
Melon Journey 2’s standout marketing line is a phrase of such arcane power and influence that it has not left our brain since we first heard it during a recent Asobu showcase. “Travel to Hog Town, where melons are illegal”, we are told. Immediately we have several questions, all of them grammatically incorrect. Hog Town? Melons? Illegal? We are going to have to book a ticket.
