My biggest overall complaints relate to the movement physics. It even has online play that went off without a hitch. I’m shocked to say this, but this is one of the best multiplayer experiences to ever hit XBLIG. Play continues until one player can’t make it to the top in the time limit. Here, each player takes a turn trying to cross the bar at the highest point in the stack. Where Mount Your Friends really shines is in the multiplayer mode. Well, just from me, while my friends told me to sit down and shut up. This always resulted in hooting and hollering. There were multiple situations where the timer was nearing zero and I just barely got my hand over the line. It sounds dull, but it can be exhilarating. In the normal mode, you have 60 seconds to get above the line. Once you’ve above the line, you can press start to end the turn and start from the bottom with a new body. Each turn, you must climb higher than the highest body on the stack. You move one limb at a time, with limbs automatically clinging to the bodies already placed. Each limb is controlled by a separate button. The way you go about moving at first seemed like it would be overly complicated.

Only here, there’s no worries about the laws of physics or structural integrity. In other words, people climbing on each other to build the tallest human-building they can make. It’s like a video game version of the popular Catalonian pastime known as Castell. But I figured I would play a lot of games unlike anything I’ve seen before. Okay, maybe I didn’t picture those games having dicks that behave like bobbleheads. This is exactly the type of weird, experimental game that I had in mind when I started Indie Gamer Chick.
