In this episode of Retro Flashback, I take a look at B.C.'s Quest for Tires for the Commodore 64. This is a reasonably well regarded but often overlooked platformer that predates many of the common ones that come to mind like Super Mario Bros. It's unique mechanics, rapidly changing level variety and strong challenge still make it a pretty fun title to this day.

B.C.'s Quest for Tires is available as part of the C64 Forever emulation package which is available from Cloanto for as little as $15. You can find it at http://www.c64forever.com/.
