Outrageous !!! :)I was looking at the top 100 chart on the site... and believe it or not there is ONLY 1 Ultimate game in the whole list. (Atic Atak in joint 68th) No…
Most of Ultimate's games don't date well, IMHO. They're either too simplistic, or needlessly large maze affairs, or have that damned awful rotational key system.
They wouldn't have got away with that sort of thing after 1986. -

14% and two of those boxes with the "S" on them collected.
It's not a bad game, certainly considering it came out of budget, but it's rather repetitive and has the usual maze-game problem of growing boring after half an hour or so. -
