I didn't realize that Sega was the original publisher. I have this on Midway Arcade Treasures (well, I have the Root Beer Tapper version, which I don't think does anything different except call the drink root beer). It's pretty good, but I don't play it much because I suck at it.
Kind of funny to see a Mountain Dew ad. Is this one of the earliest forms of advertising in video games? |

 .Great game, fun while it lasts. |

Unfortunately, the ratings at Abandonia are unusable. Practically every game gets a 4 or 5. Hey guys! I appreciate Your game reviews, in fact they are most helpful. But a 4 means "almost perfect and highly enjoyable". How would Tapper compare to Ultima VII? Are both "equally good"? I don't think so.

It's filed under "The Crypt", which means the rating doesn't mean the same as for games outside "The Crypt".

Anyway, I believe, that whatever notes someone gives to a certain game there will always be someone, who doesn't like it. It's personal opinion of reviewer (my opinion this case  ) how many points will game recieve. You can always vote on the review/download page.I played it and had fun when I was a kid, I played it and had fun a couple of days ago.
