/vr/ - Retro Games

first time I was ever scared of a game was when I was around 8, so back in 1993.
the original gameboy was my first console (well, handheld, but still) and I got a few games with it.
wizards & warriors gave me a hard time, but I eventually got good at it. I was playing, this one morning, sitting at the kitchen table with my younger brother watching. it was the first time I got this far, and we were all excited to see what was coming next.
I got to this boss, several stages into the game. and as soon as I walked to the right and the big skull boss scrolls in, me and my brother both let out a loud scream and I immediately turned the thing off.
I think it was months before I played that game again..
