It’s a well-known fact that spiders are the most vile, disgusting, and completely unnecessary creatures to ever grace our planet. Literally nobody likes spiders, and if they say they do, they’re just lying to themselves. Snakes? Not a problem. Rats or mice? Totes adorbs if you ask me. Scorpions? Total bad asses. Spiders? Kill them all with fire. Now, my dislike of spiders has definitely gotten better over the years. I no longer cower at even the sight of a harmless daddy long legs, and playing as a spider in Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor (Free) has never been that big of a problem for me, though I do find it a bit icky.
However, for some people playing as a spider is a big problem, and developer Tiger Style even says that it was the most frequent concern with people who played (or ended up not playing!) the original Spider. So, for the sequel, Spider: Rite of the Shrouded Moon (Free), they planned for this in perhaps the most absurd way possible. As you probably know, Spider 2 features unlockable spider skins for your character. The very last one you unlock is Odobenus Rosmarus, which isn’t a spider at all. In fact it’s about as far from a spider as you can possibly get. It’s a walrus. Yes, a walrus.
So how do you unlock this “tooth-walking sea-horse" to play as without playing through the entire game first? It’s easy. Just head to the Save Sessions on the Settings menu, click your name and change it to: Rosmarus. Then, exit back to the Estate Map and the Walrus should be unlocked on the screen that shows you the unlockable spiders. You can choose the Walrus from there. However, in my experience I had to do a bit of a song and dance to get the Walrus to unlock, basically entering and exiting a level a few times until it finally worked. Closing out and reloading the game may help too. The important thing though is that this whole thing is real and you can actually play as a walrus in Spider 2.
So anyway, if you don’t like spiders then give this walrus trick a shot. If you do like spiders (what the hell is wrong with you!?) or are otherwise indifferent towards them, you may still find playing as a walrus absurd and fun. Whatever your chosen creature, be sure you’re playing Spider 2 because it’s one of the most incredible games of 2015 so far.



Galak-Z on PS4 is a fantastic game, I've enjoyed it immensely so far. Even if it is a stripped down version, we'll be lucky to get this on mobile.
Please give me that game, now! Also please just let me buy it out right.... No free to play. Or if it's free to play allow an option to purchase the game out right!
Wow this is amazing news, they cancelled the vita version and I assumed this would never happen but that's great. Fantastic developer 17-bit studios did such a good job on this game hope the mobile version isn't too much different, interested in how they will implement the controls.
Woah. That sword robot looks so awesome. Haha
They said they refused to make a stripped-down version for the PlayStation Vita and here they are go with the mobile version
Yeah I was pretty pissed when they decided not to come through with the Vita version...I was really looking forward to that. Oh well, at least I have this to look forward to now!
Has a real 80's Robotech feel for the characters. Looks cool. Loved Skulls of the Shogun.
Honestly if the game is as fun as that video looked I'd be very willing to put up with some ftp shenanigans. Still hope I won't have to though.
Where's the instant buy cat?? Cause this is an insta buy for me!
