Tom Tries a Sega Master System Game Part 10 : Alf
2Another Monday another Master System game. This time I checked out Alf. I have never played this game before however I had heard of it thanks to AVGN. Alf as you might expect is based off the 80s sitcom about the title character nicknamed Alf his real name though is Gordon Shumway. The plot of Alf the game is you must get back to your home planet none of the human characters from the show make an appearance here however I guess the house that Alf starts in is the Tanner house which apparently has a hidden system of caves in the basement. I attempted to figure this game out on my own but after dying numerous times and discovering you only get two continues I quickly gave up that idea. AVGN only scraped the surface of this garbage game before I learned what to do with the cat which I am guessing is Lucky I kept picking up the cat and selling it at the store yes you can pick up the cat and sell it then go back and the cat will be back at the house. Doing this will give you one dollar each time you sell it so you can get the 50 dollars you need for the key to unlock doors this way but that is not what the cat is for the cat is actually used to scare the rat away from the entrance to the caves. Once you get in the caves there is another identical rat that constantly spawns along with bats because it is a rule that nearly every videogame must have bats as an enemy. Now if you were playing this game blind you would go in the caves and attempt to get past the bats and curse the game's controls after you get an important item the bats are a little less frustrating however they can still hit you even with the important item it just depends on whether the game wants to play fair or not at that moment. Hmm I think I ranted enough. Next Monday will be taking a break from Sega Master System and doing some more Sega Genesis games.
