Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein

The Amazing Spider-Man vs The Kingpin
The Amazing Spider-Man was one of the Genesis’ early games, and a pretty enjoyable run at playing as the web head. However, it looked pretty rough, and didn’t sound all that great either. Enter the Sega CD “remake.” Unlike other ports, this isn’t tacking on some new arcade sequences or CD tracks to the original […]

Jeopardy! (Sega CD)
Are you reasonably intelligent? Do you like showing that off? Do you own a Sega CD? Have you tried Jeopardy! before in its 8-bit incarnations, and found yourself missing Alex Trebek’s smarmy Canadian attitude? Sony Imagesoft to the rescue! Admittedly, a multimedia version of Jeopardy! makes good sense, and Sony Imagesoft’s early attempts here would […]

Mansion of Hidden Souls
Just as when I originally rented it, Mansion of Hidden Souls has tricked me again. The pictures show spooky images of a first-person adventure through a lonely mansion. “Hidden Souls” pretty obviously implies the place is haunted. The back cover describes the mansion as a place “where ghostly voices and blood-curdling screams break the eerie […]
