It is an adventure game... on the NES. This kind of thing was unheard of at the time. Adventure games were all on the computer, but they tried it on the NES. It wasn't that bad of a game either. Also 7:05 that isn't a cop, that is a thug wearing blue and a bowler hat. The game had a "popularity" meter when you get points for doing good deeds and people trust you more. Which is handy if you are going about asking questions being a detective.
I tried playing this game recently. Honestly you are right it's not so bad. The game manages to look good for an NES game. Although the controls are too convoluted and caused me to stop playing. I think a 16-bit remake with improved controls would be nice, for the right price.
I think the best videos left (that are not Halloween or Christmas Theme'd) are the Workout Videos... Technically the first workout theme'd video is California Games, which is a pretty funny gaming one to kick it off. Next Reaction: California Games!
Jontron didnt start with game grumps. He started jontron in 2010, after a few years he started game grumps with Egoraptor and after a year of game grumps he quit and started making jontron videos again.
"He has quite the collection" I believe that's arin's collection from game grumps this was when he use to be the co host before danny. But I could be wrong at the same time as that was quite a long time ago for me
I mean the movie was meant to parody a christian comic of the same name that tried to paint d&d players as satanic. personally didn't like Jon's reaction to it, since he did not seem to get that the movie was supposed to be an absurd parody.
@@averagegamecritic Not really. It's better than that. It's not meant to be a parody, because if it was a parody it defeated the whole purpose. So the company which did the movie went at it with the intention to play it as straight as possible. Don't try to make it parody, don't try to satirize the material, literally show exactly how batshit insane the whole idea was in the first place. I remember getting a chance to chat with the people responsible on their Discord one time, and they were just... "there's no way we could make this funnier except to just do it straight and let everyone else realize how silly the premise is". I've been shown the original tract too, it was *seriously* just... missing the mark. Short, to the point, but wildly wrong.
@@rahl163 technically yes, it is a parody, but the creators of the movie knew that the way to make this movie funny was to play it completely straight. Nothing was changed and even in the video Jontron states that the movie was exactly ripped from the comic. Plus, everything was up to standard according to the original creator of the comic and yet Jon doesn’t even rag on the filming of the movie but rather how bad the writing is. So no, Jontron is not ridiculing a mock film for the sake that it is a mock film but rather that the mock film is just the source material
My parents had alot of point and click adventures games back in the day on the PC and they were fun but I can't see it working on a NES controller, it won't work.
It's actually pretty good - considering the source material they were working from. And considering the crew who were doing it are the same ones responsible for "Gamers: Dorkness Rising" among many other things made basically as college film students could back in the day.
The Clock tower episode woyld be an amazing next ep!
11:31 Don't you remember what happened at the end of Anti-Drug games? Wally Bear and the No Gang was so bad that he ended up relapsing.~

Ah yes, the time when Jontron didn't really know how to end videos.
I await for Jontron’s Dark Dungeons
You want to enter his dungeons?
Man, a lot of iconic memes come from this video

Workout videos sound hilarious
Yo man just started watching some of your new content just finished your rvb reactions. Good stuff brother

the season premiere of Death Battle got uploaded. Its Ant-Man vs The Atom (Marvel vs DC) in the battle of the scientist who can shrink
3:14 Shadowrun: think of it as a dystopian cyberpunk TTRPG... with magic.
Some classic moments in this episode lol
I'd still recommend his video on Howling II
Clock Tower was a fun video
Actually, the video snaps in two
Just kidding
"Well A don't do it, and B don't do it. So what do it? This controller only got 2it. Dem buttons."
"He has quite the collection" I believe that's arin's collection from game grumps this was when he use to be the co host before danny. But I could be wrong at the same time as that was quite a long time ago for me
Dark Dungeons should be next. It is so hilariously bad. Rpg players “as cool kids”

Have you reacted to the last part of the mann co no more comics?
It's been A while since I watch a DG reaction video.
Why’s that?
My parents had alot of point and click adventures games back in the day on the PC and they were fun but I can't see it working on a NES controller, it won't work.
Anyone know what the outro music is called?
It’s linked in the description
@@theduckgoesmoo oh thanks
the Titenic song!!!!
How come you haven't watched his video on japanese shmups yet? That's one of his best ones
What happens if the super insane Patrons choose this game for you, and how are you videos today
Insane patrons don’t get to choose games for me or else I’d never get to play games I want
@@theduckgoesmoo HEUGH
Yeah~ i tried playing it when it was added to the Nintendo Switch's SNES games and... it's not good. Like you have to try EVERYTHING to get far.
Jontron's Dark Dungeons. The movie he's reviewing is SO bad 😂

And considering the crew who were doing it are the same ones responsible for "Gamers: Dorkness Rising" among many other things made basically as college film students could back in the day.
@@kereminde I mean bad in how it overglorifies Christianity
@@drakeware655 Part of the source material. (I've seen that, and the movie playing it completely straight in modern day is not nearly as ham-fisted.)
for the next, i suggest "Watching the most disliked videos"
the steven segal ep 😓😓😣🥺
day one hundred eleven of asking to react to super mario bros z original 1-8 episode and reboot 1-2 episode by mark haynes
