Delphine Software Collection 1
SCORE: 61
I am very thankful I had the money to purchase a copy of the Delphine
Software Collection 1 on the Evercade. I am also thankful for the time
to be able to live stream the four games on this cartridge. The four
games on Delphine Software Collection 1 are Future Wars, Another World,
Operation Stealth, and Flashback. Long time gamers should recognize two
of those video games. Another World and Flashback have been on multiple
systems. The versions on this cartridge are from the Amiga computer.
I am not a fan of Future Wars and Operation Stealth. We have characters
that interact with different objects. We must find the right objects to
interact with in order to progress the story. If we follow the proper
path with the right interactions we can get to other screens. These two
games in Delphine Software Collection 1 are aggravating, annoying,
irritating and quite often confusing. At times I had a good idea of what
to do but I could not get the games to work right. I would want to
interact with something and I had to find the right command or object to
use in the right way. These kinds of video games are the kind that some
people will rage quit on.
Another World is another frustrating and aggravating video game. We are
in a 2D side scrolling video game where specific interactions must be
done at just the right time or a little cut scene comes up showing our
character dying. In one scene these worms would cut my characters leg
with some spike and he would bleed. In fact I could barely make it
through that game very far before giving up. I also learned to not hit
buttons during the initial cut scene or that cut scene would start all
over again. Felt like the definition of insanity to me.
Flashback is another 2D side scroller. We must again make certain
interactions at certain points to progress. The controls in Flashback
are difficult to use on the Evercade. I found a way to run around in
circles in Flashback. Enemies are great at taking you out in Flashback
too. I do like how Flashback looks though.
All in all I did not have a good experience with any of the four games
on the Delphine Software Collection 1 cartridge. The manual is
interesting to learn about the history of these games.
