Umm.. Idk about excellent _________________________________ Step into the phone booth, crank the Wyld Stallyns, and get ready for one of the most bizarre licensed games on the NES: Bill & Ted’s Excellent Video Game Adventure. Based loosely on the cult classic film, this game blends confusing mechanics, awkward design, and just enough charm to make you say… "what?" 🕹️ Gameplay Overview You play as Bill or Ted, traveling through time to rescue historical figures Gameplay is a top-down adventure with light platforming and item-fetching Find clues, collect historically “accurate” items, and return them to their rightful era ⏳ Time Travel, Sort Of Visit worlds like Ancient Egypt, Medieval England, and Revolutionary France Solve weird puzzles that barely make sense Use the phone book to dial destinations, but if you don’t have the correct number? Tough luck, dude. 💾 Design Choices (Bogus or Brilliant?) Minimal guidance — it’s easy to get lost or stuck Enemies often serve no purpose other than to annoy Inventory puzzles feel cryptic without a guide However… the game captures the movie's offbeat tone just enough to stay charming 🎸 Audio & Visuals Bright, colorful pixel art — kinda fun in a surreal way The soundtrack loops a lot, but it’s got that late-'80s “radical energy” Occasional digitized voice samples (!) 🏆 Legacy This game’s reputation isn’t excellent, but it’s become a cult oddity in the NES library. It’s an example of early movie tie-ins that tried something different — and maybe too different. Worth a look if you're into strange relics of retro gaming history. ___________________________________ #BillAndTed #NESGaming #RetroGames #TimeTravelGame #BogusAdventure #NESWeirdness #LJNSpecial #8BitClassics
