ET is great yall just dont know how to read the manual My position is that the game is godawful if you don't know the rules but merely lousy if you do. Besides the collision detection for the pits being way too finicky, I find games 1 and 2 damn near impossible because the FBI agent and scientist constantly show up seemingly at random and grabbing you with no warning when changing screens and interfering with calling/boarding the ship (should you actually make it that far somehow), whereas without those guys game 3 is too easy and boring and you could just go on forever with no challenge. --- Dolphins are people too! https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/1404-cetacea-cove <cite>WilliamPorygon posted [p:978946181] in Worst Atar...

Worse than E.T. I had this. Never could figure out exactly what I was supposed to do. I'd just mess around and sometimes a couple of numbers would pop up. There were a bunch of items that you supposedly had to pick up one one screen and leave on another but there was never any hint as to which, and I did figure out some of them did things, but others didn't, and it was all a big mess. --- Currently playing: Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster (Switch) Never befriend a man in sandals and always measure twice, cut once. <cite>McMarbles posted [p:978946342] in Worst Atar...
