Here is the final part of Piko Arcade 1!

Master's Fury is another fighting game, and I didn't care for it at all, really. I liked Dragon Master better (not by much, though). I just couldn't do *anything* against the AI opponent. And that is really frustrating and not fun at all, really.

Burglar X is...what's the opposite of 'charming'? But kinda in a good way? But it also disturbs me? Like I said, it has everything in it I like in a game! But the flatulence aspect disturbs me (I don't like potty humor), lol.

But as of writing this, I can say the game has grown on me more since I recored it, and that is a very good thing. :)

And Magic Purple, the last game on the collection - it is good! Once I figured out I could double jump (which wasn't stated anywhere!), it's another fun single-screen platformer! Decent music, decent graphics and colors, bosses aren't *too* hard*, and it's a good time. You do move a little slowly though, making some deaths a little cheap with all the enemies around you, but that's the life of an arcade game.

Overall, a pretty good cartridge. I am not fond of the 2 fighting games, and you can throw Silkroad in that group too with the special moves (for now, at least). I still don't know my thoughts on Steel Force, but I like the other 5 games on the cart, which is pretty nice! :D

Piko now on Evercade is about experiencing new games, stuff that's different. And this cart delivered! Even with the games I didn't like, it was an exciting experience going trying them for the first time. :)
