I’m currently chasing Junglist (thanks for yesterday buddy, class act as always) for the answer to yesterday’s Haiku (it might be Demon’s Souls, but I’m not too sure). But in the meantime let’s have another!
This one comes from Zar (who emailed me a metric buttload of these things). Good luck everyone!
The Large Rock Will Fall
Slimey Evil stirs
The time to escape death.
This is HaiTaku. We write Haikus about old video games and leave it you to guess what game we’re talking about. If you want to submit a Haiku feel free. Send it here!
EDIT: The Jung has confirmed to me that yesterday’s HaiTaku was indeed Demon’s Souls! Congrats to all who guessed correctly.

Majora’s Mask?
Limbo?
First thought, Majora’s Mask. But nah.
Also, 5/5/6. Not haiku!
Does that mean today is invalid?

I’m never happy.
Why Not Be Happy
Spooky why are you so sad
You should cheer up man.
Oh man I am bad at these things.
Dragon Quest? Slimey evil? I don’t know, I’ve barely even played Dragon Quest, I just know there are some cute as shit slimes.
Edit: FFVII? I guess Sephiroth is kinda snakey, and snakes are slimy. I got nothin’.
Snakes are not slimy. Your argument is full of holes!
Snakes aren’t slimy! Why, I don’t think you’ve touched a snake!
(trouser snake notwithstanding)
(unless you’re a woman)
(which I doubt, Captain Ballsack)
Even that shouldn’t be slimy…
…unless you have…
…umm…
…problems. O_o
Hygiene problems. He never cleans up after himself.
5/5/6 structure
Unconventional haiku
Answer’s still The Dig
Biker Mice from Mars
Day of the Tentacle / Maniac Mansion?
Yeah, that’s two guesses in one. #firstworldanarchist
22 minutes good job
also i think this is the first time someone guessed one of mine, on day one.
Woo! I feel special! I shall treat myself to candy.
Another World, or Out of this World depending on where you are.
Mycruba!
Matsuba?
Resident evil 4.
Boulderdash fits too…
Metroid Prime
Metroid Prime 3 might be a closer match.
Thought Majora’s Mask but that slimy evil stumps me…I suppose some of majoras forms were kind of slimy
