Retro Games Challenge
Apr. 2nd, 2013 09:38 pmDo you miss the games of your youth in the 80s? Do you wish you could still be back then, waiting desperately for new releases, pouring over gaming magazines, and grinding repetitive 8-bit games? Never fear, you can take the Retro Games Challenge!
( Eight games! Lots of waiting! )
Overall: I think this game is actually an elaborate prank played on gamers--they could have made a set of much better games, but they deliberately put in annoying features for the sake of nostalgia, and made the challenges annoying for the sake of proving the size of your gamerpenis. There's definitely some cleverness here, but I think they tried to be too clever--and too gamer-purist--to actually make it a really fun game.
