Sometimes you want to play a bad game right?

User Rating: 5.2 | Chubby Cherub NES
Chubby Cherub is one of the earliest games games to appear on the NES, and it is flat out awful. Terrible controls, goofy barely existing story, and music that will have you stabbing your ears with an ice pick. Despite all of this, the game in some strange way is actually kind of fun.

You play as Chubby Cherub, a little angel who is really hungry so you hop/fly all over town eating ice cream cones and whatever food you can get your little angelic mitts on. You have to be careful though and avoid dogs and a few other animals walking around that will put the touch of death on you (meaning if you just touch them you die).

The graphics aren't bad for an early NES game, and are infact kind of cute. THe music unfortunatley isn't good so this is one game that needs to be played with the volume off. Chubby's controls are even more painful though, and it'll take you a while to get used to manuevering him around the screen, and more than likely you'll die so quickly you'll want to turn the game off.

So like I said the game really doesn't have anything to offer, but it has some weird quirky charm to it that, if you're like me, will keep you entertained in small doses. And if nothing else it's a lot of fun to have Chubby die just to see him make one of the ugliest faces in 8-bit history.
