Who Framed Roger Rabbit on NES. Ghostbusters was more disappointing, but I've at least kinda figured out how to play it over my lifetime. WFRR I'm clueless on. I think it's some kind of point and click, but I'm not really sure. There's a part where you have to call a real life telephone number to progress.

Pretty accurate depictions of what it feels like to play these games.

๐Ÿ˜„ The phone call was just to get some simple bonus tips, nothing really necessary.

What killed me was, to swap items, you hold Select and use the arrow keys. It's soooo unintuitive!

Finally, I know what the phone call does! Maybe I've been too hard on Roger Rabbit NES....

By the time I got around to playing it, the number was deprecated and I definitely wasn't figuring out how to actually beat it! I guess I just assumed it gated me from the end, when it was probably some other esoteric thing.
