ive been thinking about how much of a risky move this is, if some deus ex machina interfered before the tower fell i would definitely do it

Do people stream Jenga? I think you've struck gold here, OP.
Move over, CS:GO and LoL and whatever the hell else twitch streamers play.

My stupid hand is unable to fit under the blocks, the game is calling me finger-fat and this will not stand.

A simple ruler will have to suffice.

Will our hero succeed????

Yep, this just earned my 5. I appreciate that this game gives you a wide variety of options in terms of piece removal, you don't see that kind of effort put in to many games these days.

The movie is Die Hard, which is basically a film adaption of Jenga if you think about : it rips off Jenga in every single one of its major plot points (spoilers). Nice reference, OP. I want to be named after the piece that got ruler-sliced.
drat it, I'm an idiot. I was close though.

Is this going to be a 100% run? Will you be doing the sequel after this LP is finished?

funny enough I have already done a let's play of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Oh, sorry but I never read that. Are you using the same character in this playthrough of Jenga as you did in the Skyrim LP?

I heard the import version (Jyenga no Masutaa: Meiyo Oppai) has some content that was cut for the western release. Were you going to show any of that off?

I almost beat this once until my computer crashed and I lost my save.

Literally, the monitor fell on the tower.

Use your ruler trick to take care of the other two blocks.

I understand why most casual gamers like Jenga, but I prefer a rougher, less predictable game like Jumbling Tower.

Most people dismiss it as a mere also-ran in the crowded woodblock stacking genre, but don't let its apparent similarities and relative unpopularity fool you, in many ways this game departs significantly from the conventions of the genre. The key difference is in the blocks themselves. While Jenga blocks are made smooth-edged and virtually identical in size, Jumbling Towers eschews that sort of hand-holding and makes ever block slightly different. Some blocks are thicker or longer than others by as much as a couple millimeters and many have entirely unique wood grain pattens. Each time you build a tower, these blocks form into a challenging new configuration that, like the procedural generation in Roguelikes, ensures that, even on the thousandth replay, the game will still be providing new things to experience. It's a shame about the UI though.

You got the worst possible RNG. Don't feel bad, happens to all of us

This may be popular among some lonely neckbeards, but in the real competitive scene the goal is to minimize randomness as much as possible so that a true test of skill can be done. How the hell is Trihex supposed to play this shirtless? HUH?
