198X - Steam Game

If you grew up in the time of penny arcades, this is the title you shouldn't miss. You'll recognize many of the arcade game influences in this game, which feels like a game in the game. Beautiful pixel graphics, that '80s feel and teen years... I'd only wish if the game was longer.

Amazing game that takes you back to the great arcade games era.

It took me straight down memory lane. I really enjoyed playing different styles of 80s games. Music is on point, just an overall good game.

Not bad. Brought Back Some Memories and was a quick play through. definitely a game to play if just wanting to chill or wind down for the night

My Video Review can be found here: https://youtu.be/uEqK-YVM09Y 198x is a really great tribute to the arcade games from the 80’s and early 90’s. It has many pros like interesting nostalgic story, mixture of genres in one game, retro atmosphere, challenging difficulty, easy accessibility, nice graphics, great ambient soundtrack and retro sounds along with great narration. There are also a few things that I dislike - all parts of the game are short and lack more complexity that it feels more like a demo than the full game and the absence of local multiplayer is almost crime here. Is it suitable for fellow Gaming Fathers and their families? I would say yes thanks to its short levels, easy accessibility and challenging yet not frustrating difficulty. Pros: - story - atmosphere - multi genre game - difficulty - accessibility - graphics - soundtrack - narration Cons: - length - complexity of games - absence of local multiplayer I have really enjoyed this nice nostalgic trip to the 80’s and thus I am giving 198x Thumbs Up and VideoGaming Father’s Index 7 out of 10 - recommended with some discount.
