Clu Clu Land (NES)



Clu Clu Land (1984) is a Japanese maze game for the NES/Famicom. This game is absolutely ridiculous and frustrating. In the game, you're a balloon fish. The goal is to uncover the gems hidden in the background by swimming over them. However, it's not easy. Monsters spawn from the center of each map and touching them kills you. Also, the center of the map kills you. Running out of time also kills you and the controls suck too. You're in constant motion and can only turn by swinging on poles. Sometimes a rubber band will appear out of nowhere (underwater?) and force you in a direction against your will, as the controls deny you of any chance to save yourself. Good luck with this one.

PS - Don't forget to press A!

Description quiz:
A) A robot approaches you and gives you 7 Nintendo Playstations. How many cats does Mario have in his hat if Luigi's apples are divisible by 67?
B) Explain where Dragon Quest III fits into the Zelda timeline.
C) Define "cloth". Divide the answer by 7. Carry 18 over to the phantom integer and calculate the distance of a Super Game Boy's jump height on Pluto with a talking banana fish.
D) How does Link feel about Mario's upcoming cameo in the new Final Fantasy XII? How does Sonic feel about this situation?
