That would have made the game perfect, because it would have made him seem much more heroic, as opposed to a peculiar, fish-out-of-water character. I just wish that Higgins didn't have that horrible hat. I actually don't really have any problems with this game. It was later released in North America for the Nintendo Entertainment System on September 1988 and in the PAL region in 1992 under the title of Adventure Island Classic. So what I thought was going to be a broken-controlled, ridiculous game completely turned my attitude around and ended up being exciting and, most importantly, challenging. Hudson's Adventure Island, also known simply as Adventure Island, is a side-scrolling platform game produced by Hudson Soft that was first released in Japan for the Famicom and MSX on September 12, 1986. This makes it less a goofy game and more a test of reflexes, because you have to grab those fruits as they pop up and throw your hammers at just the right time to keep away from one-hit deaths (which I hate, as you well know). See, the idea of the game is to use your infinite hammer supply and power-up eggs to just coast through the levels as fast as you can, while still grabbing fruits and things to increase your amount of points as well as (and this is important) extend the time bar at the top of the screen that kills you if it runs out (and you hardly ever get extra lives). The reason for that is: it's not really your average, Mario-type platformer. Still, I thought I might as well at least try it, because it was clearly popular, and I found it to be a lot of fun. When I would see this around the web, I so was not interested in it, because I thought it was just about a pudgy yet, for some reason prehistoric, and bumbling average guy (because of the gas station hat) out to rescue some girl.
Since he is apparently yet another hero who has to repeatedly rescue his girlfriend, Higgins ventures across 8 areas in order to reach Tina and defeat Quiller. The game follows the adventure (shocker!) of a kid called Master Higgins, something of a city boy who, for some reason, lives primitively on a prehistoric island with his girlfriend Tina, who has been captured by Master Quiller. The box art for Adventure Island, the first in the trilogy!Īdventure Island is a platforming side-scroller developed famously by Hudson Soft and was actually never released for the arcades, but rather for the NES in 1988.
