    Great episode guys! I've been playing games for 35 years and never seen this one! Also, Nimons are aliens that look like bulls that can shoot lasers from their horns. They are from a season of Dr. Who from the 70s, seems like too much of a coincidence to not be what they were going for.

    • @TotallyRadical
      @TotallyRadical 6 років тому +1

      @Skye Reynolds I figure so due to the close resemblance (for atari) although the spelling of Nimon is different. But that's what I figure they were making reference to.

  • @HotDogRock
    @HotDogRock 6 років тому +1

    Theres a 70's Doctor Who series called "The Horns of Nimon" (Nimon not Nemon). In that the "Nimon" was a minotaur like alien and when characters enter the "Nimon"'s realm they enter an ever-changing labyrinth.

    The Nimon, with an I, is also the minotaur substitute monster in Tom Baker Doctor Who story The Horns of Nimon, which is heavily inspired by the story of the labyrinth of Crete.

  • @handsomebrick
    @handsomebrick 6 років тому +27

    "Minotaur" is just ancient Greek for "bull of Minos" because it was owned by Minos. But really it's a man-eating hell-beast with a bull head created by unnatural experiments, there's no actual name for that type of creature because there's only one, except his actual given name which is Asterion. In Doctor Who, there are aliens called "Nimons" that are exactly like minotaurs, so I think British people made this game.

    • @SwedishEmpire1700
      @SwedishEmpire1700 6 років тому +5
