greenween Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 4 out of 10 is pretty generous! Games that never increase in difficulty are the worst! They seem to just assume the crappy controller will make you lose instead of the game getting harder. Pretty accurate review! "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime."

RickR Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 It's a good review, but 4 out of 10? 2 tops IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Yeah I thought 4 was a little high. This makes pac-man for the 2600 look like a good port (I actually like 2600 pac-man, maybe it's just the nostalgia, but I love the sounds).

AlamoAtari Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 For an intellivision game, it's dreadful. People also hate the appearance of 2600 pac-man, but the difference between the two is pac-man has increased difficulty as you play. If I had the choice between Atari or intellivision for donkey kong, Atari wins out. Still waiting for a good homebrew version for Atari like they did with pac-man.

RickR Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 It's that terribly slow jump on INTV Donkey Kong that gets me. That's not Donkey Kong at all! The 2600 version has similar limitations, but at least they got the "speed" of the game correct. To tell the truth, I never really noticed that the difficulty didn't change because as Retro Play mentions, I never played it more than a few minutes before throwing that monster back in the loch.
