A great game for its time.

User Rating: 7 | Commander Keen Episode I: Marooned on Mars PC
By Rysing_Furi | Review Date:
Having only played this in the last couple of years, its so easy to see why this game is such a classic. With great gameplay and graphics for its time, it certainly deserved all the sequels that it did because the storylines were just so fun. That might have been because back in those days gaming was still aimed at kids, compared to today's market which mostly gear toward an older audience. It takes a little while to get used to the gameplay, and as usual, it can be frustrating with all the jumping/missed jumps but that's just the style of it. A definite must play as it's part of gaming history for sure. Why on earth they don't make an updated sequel I don't know!!!
