ET: Underrated Terrestrial
ET: Extra-Terrestrial was a video game for the hit movie released back in 1982, and sparked negative feedback for the game. It was considered one of the worst video games of all time, and according to legend, Atari took the remaining copies of the game and buried them somewhere in a Mexico landfill. Was this the right response, or just an overreaction? Let's dig deeper into the game.
You play our little alien ET, who's job is to find little pixels all around an area. Sounds easy? Well, the alien is supplied with a certain amount of points which decrease every action you make. There are also holes scattered throughout, and if you fail to manuever around them you fall inside. Getting out requires a little flying, and failing to land in the right spot may get you trapped again. To add to that, scientists roam around the area, and you may want to avoid these. If you're lucky, they may just walk through you (a glitch?) If you aren't very lucky, they'll pick you up and take you to a pointless jail-like building. This does not make you lose, and you can just walk out right away. But it requires you to walk more, which can make life hard for ET and his points. After you collect all the phone pieces, you can go home.
So, what makes people consider this a bad game? Maybe it's that you lose points every time you move. Or maybe because you fall down too many holes. It may even be becuase the gameplay is too plain and stupid. If you get past what people say, you may actually enjoy it. Yes, it's pretty annoying, and you can get lost pretty easily, but be honest, we've all played worse. In conclusion, the game is pretty likeable, and it wasn't bad enough to be buried in a landfill. Just take this advice: Don't listen to what people say about something too much, or you'll convince yourself that it sucks without even trying it. Try it yourself, and see if your view of the game was true or not.

Maze Craze Review
Maze Craze is simple- all you have to do is navigate yourself through the maze-with a friend if you want to. This may sound dumb, but you will be surprised. You're put in a maze (randomly generated every time you start a new game) and you help your little man find his way out the maze. It's just like your everyday maze, but only this time you're in it! Once you play it, you may just find yourself pressing the reset button over.....and over.....and over.........
