Jill of the Jungle: The Complete Trilogy

I played the first and second games and it wasn't too hard but the third game got pretty hard. I was done on the very last level because i couldn't figure out the second half. 3/5

My late grandfather had a DOS computer during my childhood years. I was around 7 years old (1994) when gramps got this game in its trilogy form. Up until the day the DOS computer gave up the last ghost, it was one of my many favorite DOS games played (when I'm not busy with playing NES and GameBoy games). Just finding this once again... yas lord, I am happy.

This is something I played in early highschool. I would get lost in this game. There's something simple and enchanting about it. There's a depth and warmth to its sights and sounds. Thank you GOG. This has been heavily requested over many years, and it is a lovely gift.

The first episode of Jill of the Jungle doesn't really offer much. It's a little bland, but stick with it and episodes 2 and 3 add more mechanics and more interesting level design.

Unfortunately, at 40 years old I no longer have patience for the clunky controls of that time. The graphics have a nostalgic flavor, but modern consoles with smoothed controls have made me a less patient player. Imagine emulating shift, alt and arrow keys on a modern controller (bad idea in this game). Unfortunately my PC doesn't have that old parallel port to plug in a two-button joypad that I must have stuffed in some cardboard box. Thinking about it. It would be better to also unbox my old 486 and play the original thing (LOL). Now talking about the game: Good nostalgia, cool for people of this generation to know the past, real hard mode (long before Dark Souls). Of course, here saving anywhere is very easy, on the other hand, the jumps, completely out of sync, make everything difficult again. To young people, good luck and patience! As an old man, I can't take it anymore!
