Old platforming game which is too cruel (atleast for me). You will make a lot mistakes in this game and that will be very frustrating thing...
Не знаю, как вы, а я лично не могу играть в игры с CGA-графикой. (Игру получил в составе 3D Realms Anthology, отдельно я бы её вообще не купил)
Arctic Adventure is an adventure platformer set in the Arctic where you have to look through caves to find pieces of a treasure map left by Vikings. The gameplay is pretty simple, but there's some things that don't work the way I would want to. Like jumping, it takes a long while after you jump to drop into the ground, you're like a feather falling down. It takes a while for your character to jump again once you made one. Moving platforms are a chore to land, because you can move them to the opposite side. Platforms let you (as in previous editions) stand floating on false edges. When you found the majority of the caves (19), the same thing happens over and over again. It gets old. Then, sounds. You get used to them, but can be so annoying. Turrets that no-stop try to shoot you behind walls make a lot of noise. Snowman, chests and hidden blocks that grant you points can wreck your ears. It gets louder and louders depending on how many points you've been granted. VERDICT Overall, it's an old-school game to kill some time when you're bored or want to experience what's been like playing these games. I recommend it just for these interests. Because it can get tedious.

Фиолетово-голубой вынос зрения! Меня бесили CGA-палитры даже тогда, когда у меня был ПК с CGA-адаптером :) Дайте EGA, суки!
Love CGA graphics and hate sound cards? Well Arctic Adventure might be the platform game you are looking for. AA is a puzzle platformer from 1991 with all the good and bad that comes from being a classic PC Game. One note is that so far as I can tell the gamepad config is not complete and you have to use the keyboard to fire your gun (at least with my 360 controller this happened). A general review and 4 levels of play in the video below. https://youtu.be/b6kxN3Qhs2A
Хорошая и лёгкая игра платформер-головоломка. Проходится спокойно и быстро.
Pretty bland platformer from an era of pretty bland platformers. Not awful, not great. Not a great way to spend your time or money.

If it's not nostalgia trip or checking gaming history for you don't play it, it can barely be called game by today standards :)
..it's the kind of game we played as kids on the ZX Spectrum / BBC / etc. - and there's a certain charm to it - but the sound effects are cripplingly bad... I'm not sure what it can bring to the table this century to be fair... a nice example of a game played back in the 'good old days'...
