This is one of those games I definitely would've played in 1992. However, I don't think I'll bother these days. Even if it were a good title, I just don't have the patience for games with finite (or no) continues these days. Maybe modern platformers have spoiled me, but I tend to prefer ones that are tough as nails, but don't force you to restart just because you died too many times.

I wanted to try this one too; Zig loved it. But then, I think he loved anything Wolf Team put out, including Earnest Evans. :T

I'm glad you enjoyed the review! It's really too bad that archaic design held this stylish work back from being something I could enjoy; I think Earnest Evans was just kinda amateurish but this one seemed more... earnest. There are lots of things wrong with the industry today, but it's good that we can learn from our mistakes.

So Zig was the gateway drug! Not surprising.

Yeah, great stuff, like most of the writers here; makes me think even when I disagree.
