Star Warped was a parody that went through funny and came out the other side

From 2010 to 2014 Richard Cobbett wrote Crapshoot, a column about rolling the dice to bring random games back into the light. This week, in space, nobody can hear you laugh.

It's a vibes-based criteria that takes into account my first impression of each boss and how much they've sat with me since finishing the game. I've added comments on several bosses throughout the list and I went deep on the top 10. And just to get this out of the way early: I'm sorry Radahn fans. Shoutout ...
