{"product_id":"mighty-bomb-jack-nes","title":"Mighty Bomb Jack - for NES","description":"\u003cp\u003eMighty Bomb Jack is an action platformer that Tecmo developed and published for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1986, carrying its bomb collecting arcade hero into a longer adventure. King Demon Beelzebut has set a wicked plot in motion to bring the world to ruin: he kidnapped the merciful King Pamera, his beloved queen and the fair princess, and imprisoned them in a cursed pyramid. The mighty brothers fought bravely for the royal family and all of them fell except Jack. What sets Mighty Bomb Jack apart is the blend of light, floating arcade jumping with a maze of palace rooms that keeps secrets and punishes greed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a one player quest that sends Jack through a labyrinth of 16 Royal Palace Rooms on the way to the pyramid. Jack leaps high and then flaps to slow his descent, so holding position in the air and settling onto a narrow ledge becomes a skill in itself. Every room asks you to detonate bombs while dodging fierce palace villains, and treasure chests open to give up Mighty Coins and Mighty Drinks that hand you more power and more time. The trap is greed: collect too many Mighty Coins and you are sent to the Torture Room, so knowing when to stop matters as much as reflexes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayers keep returning to Mighty Bomb Jack because few games feel like it. The sprites are bright and cheerful, the tune is hard to shake, and underneath sits a strict game that expects you to learn its rooms and its rules instead of rushing them. It is also a fine piece of Tecmo history from the company's early console years, which makes it a natural shelf mate for the rest of its Nintendo Entertainment System run. If you collect action platformers for the system, Mighty Bomb Jack earns its place: a short, tough, memorable cartridge you will keep going back to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Action Platformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e NTSC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1986\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeveloper:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tecmo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge Only: No Box or Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease note that this listing is for the \u003cstrong\u003egame cartridge only\u003c\/strong\u003e.
