Junto al legendario ZX Spectrum venían estos 3 juegos que no pude dejar escapar al verlos en Steam, toda una sorpresa en forma de nostalgia. - Horace Hungry es un comecocos pero sus escenarios no son cuadrados como en el juego original lo que le hace interesante, además una vez completado debemos buscar la salida. - Horace Goes Skiing se divide en 2 subjuegos, el primero es un Frogger (cruzar la calle con tráfico) y el segundo descender por la nieve en esquís. - Horace And The Spiders se divide en 3, el primero simplemente es saltar en el momento justo, el segundo ir saltando entre lianas que además se mueven, el tercero recuerda a Lode Runner (poner trampas a los enemigos). Se ejecutan como un único juego cambiando entre ellos desde el menú, los escenarios se van repitiendo sin fin ya que el objetivo es conseguir la mayor puntuación y además la dificultad es endiablada pues según pasa el tiempo los enemigos se mueven más deprisa, el escenario comienza a cambiar, etc, además de ciertas ralentizaciones que siempre creí que eran debidas al sistema y no al propio juego. Sus apartados visual y sonoro queda claro que pertenecen a otra época. Es compatible con mando y funciona perfecto en Steam Deck, aunque recomiendo jugarlo con teclado al ser más difícil que salga volando por el cabreo al perder xD
Cute simple games, decently presented (and still nostalgic I guess) - but the emulation runs way too fast! It effects all three games, but particularly Skiing which speeds up quite quickly anyway as I remember. Why is there no way to slow them down? Or start at the original speeds and then give some choices of umpf? I got it in a sale but still requested a refund, as really what's the point? No way worth around 5 quid like this.
