My first real game
User Rating: 8.9 | Beyond Dark Castle MAC
This is one of my favorite games of all time! This is the first game i ever remember playing. It is also one of the very few games that my dad has ever played, and generally speaking he hates videogames and computer games. I really did love this game, it was nice and long, but not too long. It was a mix of puzzle and action that kept you on your toes at all times. It was also very amusing, the enemies were memorable, the puzzles were challenging, and it was all around great. Graphichly speaking, it was unimpressive, but that did not matter. From arrow shooting robots, to one eyed moster that said "NI NI NI NI NI" (I mean it), To Killer eagles, to men who threw barrels like donky kong, you had to fight them all. Can u you guess how you fought back? You threw ROCKS. Thats right, you threw rocks, and you had a limited ammo too. You had to run through multiple wings of a giant castle and flip a switch in each wing to open the next door and collect several orbs. Once you had collected enought orbs you could open the last door to the final boss. You did not need to collect all of the orbs to open the door, but it was better to get them all because once you did, you gained a special power. By pressing the space bar, you would strike a muscle man pose and become invincible as long as it was held down and as long as you had the energy. But you had to use it sparingly. And what was really amusing was, when it was Christmas, it woud say "Merry Christmas". I truely loved this game and i think it should be remade some day.
