Alex Kidd in Miracle World reviewReviewed January 12, 2004Marc Golding says: "So what's Janken?

Alex Kidd in Miracle World reviewReviewed July 29, 2013ThoughtFool1 says: "I had a lot of fun playing the game, and was really surprised by the gameplay variety in a platformer made in the mid-80's. Not only does it deliver on the gameplay, it also looked and sounded absolutely astounding. I'd recommend this game to pretty much anybody...it is certainly a game worth playing!" |
