Let's create a few more score threads for some oldies. This early Irem title might not be a great game for scoring since it indulges in heavy milking if you are so inclined (the 10,000 points per excess life are paltry compared to what you can gain from stalling the minotaur), but I find it to be a delightful little adventure nonetheless. It also has some of the most adorable bosses the entire genre has to offer:

The format would be as follows:

Name - Score - Stage

Code: Select all

   Name                 Score     Stage    
1. Perikles            223,300     ALL      
2.
3.

And my own score (without any milking):



Perikles - 223,300 - ALL

Cute game indeed! Had to posterise the dragon's goofy little pout for future use - you know I'm an appreciator of such things.

Awww, it was entirely worth it to play this game and create the appertaining thread just for that. I'm certain that the stoic little fella will serve as the thundering echo in the crucible of many a discussion to come - I'm also certain he's a gregarious specimen:
