Any love for Alex Kidd?

[AppleQueso]

The Alex Kidd series was a fair series at best. The series was way ahead of its time, similar to Phantasy Star, and it didn't really generate a huge sprawling world-wide phenomenon like Mario and Sonic had. The Alex Kidd games, from what I remember, were open-ended platforming games, rather than linear platforming games.

In the Alex Kidd series, you could enter buildings and explore non-linear levels. They were almost like side-scrolling sandbox games.

Which Alex Kidd games were you playing? They're ALL linear.

Enchanted Castle is not really an Alex Kidd game, it was a Japanese girls game called "Anmitsu Hime" with modified sprites for the overseas versions.

You're thinking of Alex Kidd in High Tech World. Enchanted Castle was an Alex Kidd game from the start.
