Another awesome game form Epic MegaGames

its a crap game of old woke people that try to make Tarzan weak , bad written game and very boring

I bought this game about 10 years ago, before GoG (You could send a check to an address on the East Coast and get original floppies of 90's Epic Games - legitimate copies, but probably from some guy in his basement with thousands of the originals. I still have the One Must Fall 2097 poster and hint manual), and like most Epic Games platformers of the period, I found it spectacularly underwhelming. Jazz Jackrabbit was the only one that broke the mold - but I digress. Jill is very bland. The fighting is tedious - your boomerang or whatever-it-is absolutely refuses to go where it should - and the enemies are repetitive. The crawler/patroller types feature heavily in the game's Rogues Gallery, and for a game released in '92, the graphics somehow look worse than the original Commander Keen. Only Jill looks nice (a key selling point, I would imagine). Also the jumping was touchy, and Jill would frequently overshoot (as you couldn't change direction in mid-air and floated like a balloon) and end up crisped in the lava. Once you've played through a handful of levels, nothing dramatically changes for the rest of the game. No enemies break the "don't touch it or it'll kill you somehow!" standard and waddle around from barrier to barrier, awaiting your deadly boomerang toss. I found it very similar to Wolfenstein 3D - you get everything the game has to offer in the first few levels and that's it. It's not a buggy game, which is one plus. It played very smoothly. The only downside was I didn't want to keep playing it! I played this in 2008 or something, so nostalgia didn't cover up any of the perceived defects. It's free, sure, but you can get much better 90's platforming for only a handful of dollars. I wouldn't recommend this game.
