IMO, I would rather vomit razor blades than play this again

I am definitely thinking about buying this game, if and when
it is ported to NES. So - I am curious to know why you
dislike it so much? I could easily be persuaded to save
my money.
What, specifically, is so bad about this game that you
would rather "vomit razor blades" than play it again?
I mean, I'm not anxious to get all cut up myself... ;^)

| 510.5 | plastics stink | OTOFS::LALONDE | I am EMPOWERED!!!!!!! | Tue Feb 05 1991 15:16 | 7 |
| All NES cartridges are made of plastics and they do smell awful.
But what has that got to do with playing the game.
In other words, I'd also like to know the reasons why the game is being
rated poorly. I've been waiting for this game since last year.

| 510.6 | How's this? | COBRA::TONER | | Tue Feb 05 1991 19:31 | 31 |
| Well, if my word isn't good enough...:-)
For starters this game is slooooooowwwwww. You walk around
this dungeon at the rate of about a foot every 10 secs. If,
(perish the thought) you want to run, you have to walk for about
five seconds before it starts running.
Secondly, I thought the combat really stunk. It may be that
my controllers have a vast amount of dirt infesting them, but I
don't really think so. The game has a vast amount of beasties
that are hungry for your hide, and some of them are short. If
you have the misfortune of meeting up with one of these short
dudes, you have to swing you weapon downward. I had a great deal
of difficulty trying to swing down. That added to the fact that
you have to get right next to a nasty to whack it while it tears
open a new orifice in you really bummed me out about the combat
encounters.
I cannot put enough emphasis on the fact that I wouldn't
recommend this game if it was the only NES game in existence.
If you have a computer version of this game and you think that
the NES version might be interresting, you will be extremely
dissapointed. The only saving grace for it was the graphics,
but i still would much rather look at super mario III graphics.
I'm still enraged that i shelled out the 2.50 to rent this
plastic waste. :-(

P.S. - I hope this was a little more informitive than the last
reply!

| re: .6
Yep - thanks for the info. It's off my "buy" list. Sounds
like the `lance' in the title should be taken to the
game itself - like lancing a boil.
