  A fun, albeit generic, platformer. One of the best in the series.

  Master Higgins' most fun adventure...

  By edranyesul | Review Date: Feb 15, 2006 | NES

  The glory days of the NES were an absolute joy for me. I couldn't help but try all the platformers coming in, all of which tried something fresh and exciting. While Hudson Soft's Adventure Island II was quite similar t... Read Full Review
