This was one of my first videogames. I wouldn't call it a good game, but it's certainly a vibe. I never did beat it.

............Well I wouldn't call YOU a good game! (wait, that doesn't actually make sense.....dammit!)

I was a big fan of the second one.

I loved it. Never finished it too though. Lots of silly fun coop.

This was one of the games of all times. Multiple very interesting design choices in this one which we no longer see today

They actually made a more modern version which I believe is on Steam.

I never got to play it back in the day, there was always something else more interesting to buy/rent. Will have to try it one day.
