I remember playing this for the first time on Xbox Arcade. One thing that baffled me to this day is that you go on the falling platform four times in the game, and you can either go down three times, or nine times. As far as I know there's no indication on whether you can go all the way down to nine unless through trial and error.

There's also an achievement for getting the highest score, which involves beating the whole game flawlessly, getting to the last action command... and missing. So you restart that last scene. You have to repeat this four times, essentially grinding out score until you use all your lives. Crazy game.

I have heard of this game before and I have think seen scenes but all I know is that this is the first (one of the first) game(s) to have quick time events/action commands. Either way, that was some nice Don Bluth animation and great gameplay,Danny.

Arin's Princess Daphne impression is really fucking good and it's uncanny.

Need a James and Elyse guest grumps...

Always remember this game from the arcades. Was way too intimidated to play it plus the fact that it was $1 a game meant I probably never tried it and played Turtles in Time or X-Men instead.

[u/Cascadianranger]

Its such a shame this isnt as good a game because the animation is simply stellar. Such a fascinating piece of gaming history

[u/Fortunato5678]

I've never seen a version with the on-screen guide. That makes it so much less annoying.

[u/Future_Wolf]

I could have sworn they already played this. I found the video, but it's for the SNES version. I SWORE they already did this for the PS3 or something.
