26 Mar 2018 18:58		You master this game by having the courage to start it on your emulator
3 Jun 2018 21:49		Abandon hope all ye who enter here.
14 Jun 2018 0:30		The Game that (almost) single-handily destroyed the Video Game industry.

19 Apr 2019 5:25		^ you got your wish
3 Jan 2020 7:02		Reviewed the existing unofficial set, promoted it, and added two leaderboards.
7 Jan 2020 2:54		Nearly all achievements must be earned on the default hard difficulty. Exceptions: "Learn How to Play" and the 3 Easter eggs which can be earned on easy (setting 3).
7 Jan 2020 19:23		Good set. Bad game.
12 Jan 2020 20:49		Pretty amazing game considering the hardware limitations and HSW was given only six weeks from design to delivery. If it wasnt for the annoyances of falling in the pits when you didnt want to, this would be among the greats of the 2600 games.
13 Jan 2020 15:55		I don't disagree. Could have changed the course of history.
17 Jul 2020 23:02		I just noticed the box art for the first time. Seeing it made my day. Please never change it.
