...20 years later! My parents would rent this game for my brothers and I for our SNES. Perhaps we were too young, and our attention spans too short because we never got very far. I do remember we all thought it was "Out of this World"! It's the name the game was released as back then. Fast forward to its release on the Wii U some years ago now, and I managed to beat it. I'm not sure how long it took, maybe somewhere between 4 to 8 hours. With each additional playthrough I would knock off time until I was beating the game in about 20 minutes. The 20th Anniversary Edition looks better and sounds better than the original all while keeping the original's feel. You can easily switch between the two versions while playing which is kind of neat to see how it was then vs now. This game was a classic then, and still is today! I can't recommend it enough! I'd liken it to games like Journey by thatgamecompany except this game makes you work for the story. Fair warning though, if you can't handle trial and error, or sluggish controls, or a complete lack of hand holding then you'd better stay away from this game.
