First off, if you seen my previous reviews you will see how I loved the art for the original NES games such as Mario Bros, Rad Racer, Super Mario Bros and so on I'm referring to how they are pixelated there is nothing more old school than that and Ice Climbers is just another one to add to that list of Cover Art I love. In Ice Climbers you play as a person with a hammer, I've been told that it's a Eskimo I'm not sure if he is or isn't, I just play games for fun I don't wonder what their race is. He could be a freaking Jackalope for all I care, as long as the game is good and I'm proud to say this game is good. Your objective is to get food that a bird has stolen, and your job is to climb up a mountain using your trusty hammer. One thing I like about this game is it actually gives you a choice about how long you can make this game anywhere from 2 to 32 mountains to climb, when can you say you've seen a game that asks: "Hey how long would you like this game to be?" you haven't! and that's why this game is so good. I'll admit people are right jumping was the only problem I had but other than that the game is fun to play. You will have standard enemies trying to hinder you everything from Birds to Yettie's. So if you are into old school games than I suggest you get this one.
