Shlimazl
A downloadable game
Meet Plummer Unlucky from the Kingdom of Chai.
S'impossible! Today's even worse than his usual Yiddisher Mazl. The unholy Toto-Inu just kidnapped his precious princess Dreyzl. That's Plummer's, not Toto's. Do you have any idea the amount of taxes that royal family cost him?! And who do you think they sent to the rescue? Nu, Mr. Unlucky, of course! Did they ask him nicely? No. Are they gonna pay him for his trouble? Not a chance. Oy, the chutzpah on dem schleppers!
Bekitzer, we sell you the first-ever right-to-left sigh-scroller!!!
Good luck trying to control this klutz!
Collect Cohens.
Stomp Shopkeepers.
And Little Gooptas.
Beware of those sneaky Sprouts!
The game is 100% Game Goy compatible, including the DMG (Dank Mein Got)!
Libstu das Schpiel? Gib mir some Gelt!
You're gonna laugh, but Plummer Unlucky will return! The nebbech will be joining his much elder brother Yossi on a new misadventure in Sertsenyuland:
Uber Shlimazl Brooders: Yossi’s Gesheft.
Play either of the brothers (or both, if you've got two left hands) as they grab some balls and get ready for their final slowdown with the Grosser Bale-Boss —
Drowser, the King of the Kippahs!
And this time we won't be schnorring around. That game will only be available for purchase in physical form!
Pre-order your copy today!
Hurry, before we run out of patience!
Note: The music used is a public-domain track named Cognition, added as a proof of concept. Just imagine (a much faster rendition of) Vu nemt men a bissele mazl playing.
Disclaimer: This game and the accompanying materials are meant as a gentile ridicule, without intending to cause any offence to any individual, a group of individuals (be it ethnic, religious, or ethno-religious), or a complemented group thereof.
Many thanks to Lior Halphon for being such a mensch!
Happy Rosh Hashanah!
