The games you can't play, literally

[RyaNtheSlayA]

Not sure if this is too off-topic....

but there are games that are technically "playable" but impossible to finish because of programming errors. The Commodore 64 version of Rastan and the DOS port of TMNT are examples, both contain pitfalls that are too long, they cannot be jumped over.

Impossible Mission on the 7800 is actually impossible.

Steel Batallion.

That was me too at first, damn hard to get the hang of. Once I did I had a blast with it though.

I might be putting Legend of Grimrock up here shortly... I'm on Level 5 and the puzzles are starting to push "pleasantly taxing" into the "frustratingly difficult" zone.
