Slightly Magic - 8bit Legacy Edition

Neat short adventure game from ZX Spectrum era, but with abandoned support sadly (F12 key brings debug console, absent crouch or death animations..)

[h1] Nightmares become reality. [/h1]

Well,,, Sorry to say that, but this game aged really bad. I played 20 minutes and I realized I'd better watch someone else solving the puzzles on youtube. It is simply not fun to die again and again doing a bunch of trial and error, with an inventory that lets you keep only two objects at a time, a mechanic that implies a lot of backtracking and some very bad platforming. Puzzles are not even clever, and the story is absent. I am sure this game was memorable and enjoyable in the old days, at the arcade... So buy it and play it again if you want to revive your childhood memories, or if you are somehow interested in the history of the genre. But if you are looking for a game that is fun to play today, choose something else. It is a good port, enriched with nice extra material. But all in all, it was a good game, that sadly did not stand the test of time.

Yes, there is a good game here. Its something old. (yeep) Its something borrowed. (artstyle) Its something blue. (much is blue in this one) What could ever go wrong with that? Nothing really. Its one of those classic do something or die trying to do said something games. Worth 5,99Euros..... Nope. not even close. (you can get Batman; Arkham city for less, just as an example) Worth a 1/10th of that at the most. Games that looked like this in the 1990s......wouldnt had payed it any attention as there where alot better titles out at that time.... Simon the sorcerer 1 & 2 to mention just something.... This one should be considered a neutral vote for me but as we all know there is no such on Steam. So its a yes i recommend. but just.

I had the Spectrum version back in the day and actually cleared it.

Trash and crash
