That sound you hear is our friends over at Limited Run Games revving up the Carbon Engine for a brand-new classic game compilation. This week they are reviving one of the 8-bit era’s greatest friendships when they release A Boy and His Blob: Retro Collection on pretty much every modern console you can think of. That’s cool news, but are any of these games actually worth playing? To answer that question, I decided to flip through the pages of Electronic Gaming Monthly, Computer & Video Games, Mean Machines and more classic magazines to see what the critics said back when these games first came out. I sure hope you have a big bag full of jelly beans, because you’re going to need them for this episode of Limited Run Review Crew.
