Which ones are actually worth playing? I recall early castlevania games being hit or miss
Simon's Quest is a C- game with an A+ soundtrack
I’d like a counter of how many people have quit after not knowing where to go when you had to kneel in that one specific place for that specific amount of time to have a tornado come and take you whatever place it was.
Well in anyone's defense, considering the time period that game was released in, how was anyone honestly supposed to know? If you didn't have Nintendo Power helping you and very limited internet access, of course it was very cryptic and very unnecessary.
There was something in the manual if I remember correctly. Which you wouldn’t necessarily have if you rented the game.
Edit: just checked and I was wrong. Nothing in the manual. I must have been thinking of another game.
