As opposed to most other games, which boost intellect, lengthen attention span, develop character, foster social skills, and provide a genuine sense of accomplishment. Oh wait, my bad.
Wow this brings it back! A time when my life was so simple. I had an Atari for years then upgraded to a NES. Never got the point of this game, it just went on and on and on and on and on and on, no big bosses or anything.
This game looks like fun. The game is so simple but very addictive. The SNES and Genesis systems were my favorites.The 80's and 90's were the golden years of gaming.Some kids just do not understand the importance of those decades in gaming.
A long while ago I bought Activision Anthology for the Game Boy Advance with this and many other classic games on it. I wish Nintendo would do that for their simple but classic games that were out for the NES.
@Thunderwing88 There are NES games out on the GB advance. Games like Donkey Kong,Metroid,Super Mario,and a few others. Just check Amazon website the games are there and can be had for a good price.
One trick about this game is the player must leap at the end of every screen prior to entering the next screen in case a log is waiting on the other side
I remember thinking...WOW this is really cool when I was like 12 playing my first Atari...

i don't really get the objective... is it to get the highest score in 20mins? also.. are the levels randomly placed or not?
