blue wish

Post by lilmanjs »

I want to play blue wish and all that jazz, but do you need the game itself to play the expansion pack? also does the Plus version of the expansion pack have just remixed music or does it have the music from the orig expansion pack.

It's all freeware. There aren't "expansion packs" as I understand them. There's Blue Wish, and then the sequel Blue Wish Resurrection, and then an updated version of that called Blue Wish Resurrection Plus. None of them need anything else to run. They are all standalone versions.

then why do all the sites list blue wish as a game and the others as expansion packs?

Shoot The Core lists Blue Wish Resurrection as:
"Expansion to Blue Wish, plays like Mars Matrix! "
Which is a pretty misleading description in my opinion - doesn't play much like Mars Matrix.

Despite this poor wording, Blue Wish Resurrection does not require Blue Wish to run. Blue Wish Resurrection Plus does not require Blue Wish OR Blue Wish Resurrection to run. Each game is stand-alone. They're also very good! Enjoy them!
