From what i gather from living my life thus far, there are 2 kinds of people in this world. Ones who know how to beat this game, and others who have no idea what to do and just run around collecting 1000 shells, thinking that the game is broken cause jaws health always goes right back up after each encounter with him. It is actually easy to beat once you know how to (except whenever you see those sideways moving jellyfish, doesnt matter how good you are, youre in trouble) and i still have fun playing this game, but i dont understand why, it has bad controls, annoying gameplay, more repetitive that pong, and is really only about 15 minutes long if you understand it, however i will still recomend this only if you are a true retro gamer.
