Trying VS Cartridge-Combination Games (Part 1) [Evercade #70]
Watch me Live!: https://www.twitch.tv/Joshua8600
Just like how the 'Secret' games are like their own collection, so are the cartridge-combo games!
I really like these games! Twin Brats is probably my least-favorite but that's because its a maze Pac-Man-like game which I don't particularly care for.
Dark Chambers 7800 is a lot better than the 2600 counterpart - I wish it wasn't cart-combo-locked, as putting both carts in for this one 7800 game is pretty annoying. Though the game is alright, I don't think it's worth the effort to put the carts in.
Pyramids of Ra is a good puzzle game. THough actually *starting* the game was more annoying than it should have been, and figuring out that one tile took me longer than it should have, it's a good game along the lines of what Xump from Lynx Collection 1! The room/level system still confuses me, though. xD
And Arkade Rush is really fascinating! But how is a single-player supposed to get any score on the higher difficulties? It seems like it was built for 2 players and while 1 player works, it kinda falls? Maybe I'm just bad - I love the concept and playing it is fun, but the score system kinda breaks that? It's hard to explain, really.
But yeah, some really good bonus games here! :D
