The fact that the ENTIRE VILLAGE is one MASSIVE TROLL is evidence that the devs are actually mentally insane
I was so frustrated as a kid when I couldn't continue pass the castle. I thought that was just the first level. Turns out it was half the game
I finally saw the ending, after all these years
...
...
What a load of bs.
I played this a LOT as a kid. I never left the f**king house , who would have thought you need to collect all those shitty papers using half random rules. You were a kid and just wanted to have fun , not to solve boring puzzles nor bow 100 times to move further in game. Neverhteless it was interesting game.
I too, I never left the house, but to me is more complicated because I'm brazilian, I dont knew to read and to read in english haha haha
Same here. There’s no way I could’ve ever passed this game back in the 80’s. It took me damn near over 30 years and help from this playthrough to finish it in 30 minutes. This game was brutally hard and cryptic as all hell. I couldn’t even get the test answers right and English was my first fucking language. Even if I would’ve made it out of that damn castle, there’s no chance in hell I would’ve known to wait till 12 exactly to talk to that guard. I still love the game though
@@EDGar-wi6np Yeah I never got farther than that guard, and if you bugged him more than once or twice I think it was game over. Wait until 12 o clock.. how the hell was anyone supposed to know that??
DUDE I could never leave the house but I kept trying so hard haha
It's based by Anmitsu-Hime (Japanese Version). It's quite popular Shoujo manga in Showa-Era (Anmitsu-Hime also adapted to Anime & Live-Action)
Imagine if Super Mario Bros. 2 came out but instead of saving the princess or defeating an evil frog king, you have to do Peach's grocery shopping for her and Mario dies if he forgets to tie his shoes or opens a shaken can of soda.
I never made it out of the castle as a kid haha.
Neither lol. The nostalgia is heavy here
Me either I kicked ass on other Alex Kidd games but this one I could never get.
Haha, this game was so cruel.
You want to try on armor? Now you can't move. GAME OVER.
You want to go on the computer? Now you're electrocuted. GAME OVER.
Hey, how about some pizza? Nah, you're too busy. Let the dog eat it.
The ending: Yay, Alex is finally playing a video game. Look at how much fun he's having. Bye!
"ALEX, THIS 'RESTORER' TURNS ANYTHING BACK TO IT'S ORIGINAL FORM"
If the game was actually realistic, the piece of paper would turn into wood
Lol, I have never thought about this earlier.
I never escaped the damn house as a kid. The final map piece I could never get was the damn ladder to fix the slow clock?! How the hell were you meant to notice that as a 8 yr old?!
fuck that clock!
Or to remember to go in a room 20 times.
@@frogwashing yes, games were impossible back then. No real logic to any puzzles. You mainly solved things by randomly just mashing the buttons and discovering something lol
I used to rent it out and could never get past the stupid castle and for some strange reason I kind of liked the game.
@robertdemon3550 I actually loved the game too. The music and sprites were cute for a kid. I just wish there was a clue somewhere about looking for one broken clock in the house or something lol
22:05 PLEASE, HELP ME GODS, I BEG OF YOU; ALL OF YOU!!!!!! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!
PLEASE, LET ME REACH THE ARCADE!!!!
20:43 I love a good "HUMBUGER"
I hope this game wasn't full price when it came out.
This just seems like a cruel joke to play on a kid...
All that running around, doing nothing really meaningful, just to have it end like that, with only a few sections where you actually get to do anything remotely fun.
He might as well have flipped the player off at the end.
I t w a s .
Games back in the day were like $80 back then. That's a lot more than what games are now. I never bought this game. I rented it at the local video store back then. Not even a blockbuster it was like a mom & pop shop back in the 80's or your local convenience store were renting video games at that time.
One reviewer thought the arcade would include a playable minigame or two...while I didn't think so (since it wasn't mentioned/hinted on the box or in the manual), given the tedious and often cryptic nature of the game, that definitely would've been a nice reward!
Played through this game back in the day a dozen times. It never says to check the guard for pass exactly @ 12:00. So much poor time spent attempting to guess the perfect time/place required to get past gate. 🤦
Watched playthrough to finally see what I failed to do way back then. Games have come a long way since then.
I never got past the castle as a kid.
Que nostalgia, meu 1° console foi um master system evolution, jogava esse jogo e não entendia nada, mas gostava
Nossa,eu tenho o meu até hoje
Eu também tenho o console até hoje, mas os meus dois controles quebraram.
Eu tb cara! Tenho o console, mas não funciona mais...
Eu tbm n entendia nd desse jogo tinha vários cômodos pra ir ficava até perdido kkkkk
@@rafa_hazard999 ou morria em um cômodo aleatório
This was actually got me into English. I played this before the internet was a thing around here; God knows how much time I spent grinding this game hahaah
Eu nunca zerei esse jogo, eu lembro de ter conseguido passar da terceira parte rezando 100 vezes na arca (sla o nome daquilo)kkkkk mas não lembro de ter passado da última parte. Vendo a gameplay agora eu fico imaginando como eu consegui chegar até a terceira parte sendo que eu nem sabia inglês e eu tinha 7 anos kkkkk se bem me lembro minha prima chegou comigo dizendo que eu tinha que rezar 100 vezes na arca pra passar, mas foi meio que só isso kkk passei muito tempo da minha vida jogando esse jogo, mas hoje em dia eu vejo os jogos da sega, mais especificamente os do Alex Kidd e fico me perguntando "como diabos alguém ia saber que tem fazer isso?" Sendo uma criancinha kkkk
Kkkkkkkk real Vey o jogo é ora criança e Os cara mete a lua de um inglês fudido pra vc passar de fase kkkķkk,eu tinha uns 7 anos na época n sabia nem oq tava escrito só lembro q eu ficava rodando na casa e apertava em qlqr coisa qnd tinha opção
joguei na epoca com um dicionario e nem assim consegui passar, pior que eu tinha comprado esse jogo pensando que era de aventtura kkk
Só rodava e fazia coisas sem sentido, nunca entendi nada desse jogo
Jogo de boa aparência, mas a jogabilidade dele é estranha. Igual um pessoal disse aqui. Tentaram misturar Alex com RPG. Realmente, fiz bem nem de ter forçado a continuar o jogo em 2003. Joguei só os outros dois (Shinobi e Miracre World) esses dois sim são bem legais e interessantes para passar o tempo. Pena que os finais dos três jogos não tem tanta coisa. Outro que curti e quase cheguei no final foi o Wonderboy. Fui até a penúltima fase, mas as bonecas estavam enroladas de achar por lá 😂 mas vi o final na Web mesmo.
Essa primeira fase era do demônio eu nunca soube passar
Eu só chegava na parte dos ninjas e pronto, eu passava na sorte e ficava indo e voltando pro mesmo local
Não sabia também hahaha
Ussj ngFaye dgry hhhtn mingA
Ranço eu só ficava dentro de casa rodando kkkk dps desistia
Pó o pai dele ofende ele logo no início cara kkkkkk
Someone named whoisthisgit makes fun of this game in one of his "Weakest Game Characters" videos. For example, there's a suit of armor and if Alex puts it on he can't move and the game ends almost immediately. Lol.
6 years later, he made a full "Worst Levels in gaming" video about the game, where the worst level is the full game. That's why i went here in the first place.
Thanks for uploading this. I first played this when I was 5 years old, that test was the hardest thing ever. I even bought a calculator just to get one question lol. It was so frustrating because all I wanted was to go fight the ninjas!
After seeing this I can see how impossible it would have been for a 5yr old to complete. I wasted so much time in that game lol.
Digital Assassin Me also! I totally identify with your words. And, as brazilian, I did not know english, so can you imagine how much harder for me it was.
@@matheus5230 nossa, achei mais alguém que passou por isso haha
Henry Aviator Eu jogava no Master System com 132 jogos na memória da Tectoy!
@@matheus5230 nossa que sortudo! O meu tinha 30 kskskk, como o seu tinha tanto?
Henry Aviator Preciso dizer que só dava para jogar com jogos na memória, não tinha entrada para cartucho. A TecToy tem vários modelos assim de Master System e até Mega Drive que continuam sendo vendidos até hoje nas lojas do Brasil. Acho que dá para encontrar em qualquer shopping ou até mesmo supermercado.
To this day, I am not sure what sega was trying to achieve with this game. All it did was puncture Alex Kidd's credibility as a franchise.
The game wasn't even originally an Alex Kidd game. In Japan it was based on the anime Anmitsu Hime. Maybe it would have made more sense to fans of the show?
Alex kidd and RPG elements don’t fit well together,
Sadly this game became boring as you do hearing the music skipping back & forth constandly everytime you exit or enter a room, wich really gets annoying pretty fast, and theres sooo much text to read,
I wonder if Sega saw how Nintendo took an unrelated Famicom game and converted it into a Mario game and Sega went "Hey, we can do that too!" so they took some crappy Mark III game based on some manga nobody's heard of and converted it into an Alex Kidd game and expected sales.
Also to promote Outrun...
@@supernintendo182which game, super Mario 2?
Esse jogo já me deixou muito puto antigamente, era impossível não se irritar
I rented this game couple of times during weekends. Never actually made it pass the 1st level (house). I think that the game was not bad but since English wasn't my native language I struggled as a kid to understand what the hell I should do.
verapamil07 That was my case too, I used to get the game overs a lot while exploring the house trying to figure out what to do
verapamil07 Me also
Nah, it wasn't your struggling grasp on English, this game is legit terrible, lol. The questions and free roaming in the house are ridiculous for an action platformer like Alex Kidd. I never made it past the house either, just purely down to how bad it is.
Same
I was also very young when i first played this, I spoke english but couldn't read yet so had no clue WTF was going on hahah. Also how good was renting games back in the day, spending ages deciding which game to rent for the weekend.
That question in 5:05 about light reaching the Earth from the Sun... I thought it was about 8 minutes.
Yeah, and I think that was known even in 1987..
Am I the only one that gets PTSD by this music even hearing it at 36 years old
what a weird and awkward game.I feel like this was an early foundation for what became shenmue.aside of it's lack of hints signification in order to reach the objective,I kinda like it's free roaming aspects.
Man, how the hell is he gonna get home?
l m a o
LOL
He just gets hit by a ninja star and he teleports home
for years some of my friends and I tried to get out of the castle, there was no internet and for us it was all a discovery, I still remember the emotion of when one morning I unexpectedly found the last piece of the map and the first thing I did was to call my friends and tell them that I had finally succeeded! I was maybe 12 or 13 years old and I couldn't save the game I couldn't record, in short they had to come and see for themselves otherwise no one would believe me 😂
Did you know those gold colored clouds in the ninja levels conceal 100 gold pieces each? Shoot them and they will reveal themselves. Just my easter egg.
Oh my god, how could I stand this sound when I was younger?? It makes me crazy...
How the fuck did we play this as kids, and figure things out like you need to wait until 12:00 then talk to that guy. I beat this game as a kid....how!?!?!
Me too, guys
This should have honestly just stayed in Japan as Anmitsu Hime, as it originally was; they could've made a much better Alex Kidd game using some other property, but it is what it is.
Eu joguei isso a infância toda e nunca consegui juntar o mapa todo! Graças a esse jogo eu aprendi um pouco de inglês.
This damn game gave me nightmares as a kid!
I remember playing this as a kid, I had no idea what I was doing. I think I remember calling the police on the phone.
wow...lmao
You know. If you pray in the temple 100 times you automatically get the pass from the monk.
10 minutes to go it changes into a very different game
I’m still upset that I spent my own money on this game as a child.
Esse ai é um dos melhores, lembro que acordava de manhã, naquele frio do interior, com meu irmão e minha irmã pra jogar o jogo traduzido, tempos bons...
Krl o meu era em ingles era mo fudido passa a primeira fase
:-:eu só jogava msm
Deu sorte de pegar traduzido. Pois o do Master System de 2003 o jogo era sem tradução.
I clocked it :) just found out this game was supposed to be 'Anmitsu Hime" and they threw Alex in instead.. LOL Sega
Something similar to Doki Doki panic and super Mario bros
The original Japanese game is Anmitsu Hime, and it's based on an anime. They just changed sprites and dialogues for the American version.
Gli unici belle MIRACLE WORLD - CASTLE OF ILLUSION ! il resto degli Alex Kidd era da buttare
This is begging for AVGN treatment.
I absolutely loved this game as a kid, this and wonderboy in monster land and phyco fox
Wonder boy in monster land was the best.
@@robertdemon3550 hell yeah, I still recon i could remember where the secret coins are when you jump in front of a tree etc 😁
@@Onestringpuppet I had it on my Xbox about 10 years ago, it is still a great game.
I surprisingly never played Psycho Fox.
@@robertdemon3550 yes that one wasn't as well known, was like a pre Mario game. I played them on the original sega master system when it came out. They were the days 😅
Sega probably saw what nintendo did with doki doki panic by turning it into a mario game and so they tout let’s do the same thing,by turning anmitsu hime into an alex kidd game,,
Well it was a nice attempt(!).
Nunca que eu com 7 anos ia zerar esse jogo kkkkk,só ficava andando nos cenários.
Why doesn’t he just hang glide all the way to High Tech World?
The castle portion would frustrate me but I remember getting to the portion with the ninjas and think: "This is the most fun I've had on a video game". Made the castle portion worth it to me.
But you beat the game despite that, Brother! And you were only 4! 🤟😁🤟
could someone tell me why the hell are those Ninjas trying to Kill a japanese kid called Alex when he is going to an arcade? what can a kid with big ears do?
+Aaron Mosiah Leal Fernandez Because he's the child of the Shogun, and they're assassins.
Thanks for replying me back, i never thought that
Aaron Mosiah Leal Fernandez
It was just a theory, but it turns out that this game is just a modified [for overseas] version of a game based on a manga about a princess.
WoW, i didn't know that so alex the kid in the manga would be Alexia?
Haha, nah. I mean that they changed the game into an Alex Kidd-game from its previous "Anmitsu Hime" origin, because no one outside of japan had heard of it, whereas Alex Kidd was the unofficial Sega-mascot at the time and would boost its sales.
You dont need to wait till 12 to get the pass. You can get it by praying 100 times at the shrine.
Just 100 times eh? Sounds as fun as the rest of the game.
Talking to the fortune teller and waiting til 12pm is quicker than praying 100x, just saying...
@@fabioriato i am surprised someone still watches this not well-known game.
The original game this was modified from was meant to be Japan of an earlier time with modern conveniences like phones and all that, as it was based on a manga/anime series it was tied to.
La qualite rockwell monsieur :-)
I just beat this game this afternoon after about 5 years of owning it. I don't think any other game has put more rage into my soul than this one. It took me years to finally have the patience to figure out how the hell you get the 8 pieces of paper. But then by the time I had done it I'd wasted the whole clock. So then I had to do it all over again, then figure out where the hell the hang glider is even used. So then FINALLY you get the password....the ONLY section of the game where a password is even used!!! What?!? So then you FINALLY get to the action stages....man.....This playthrough makes the platforming sections look so much easier than they actually are. I must have died over 100 times but thankfully the section after the hotdog stand is a legitimate 2nd checkpoint. I honestly hope the people that designed this game have suffered horrible deaths at this point. One tip is you can shoot the gold clouds to get 200 gold each. I also bought the bible in my playthrough, I'm not sure if it helped but I was able to rapidly pray to the gods and after about 50 times they gave me the gate ticket to get to the 2nd platforming part. The water sections and the very end part where the jumping cats come in. Jesus. And then that miserable ending, playing Outrun, yeah, I wish I had decided to do that the last 3 hours!! I can't believe I never saw the Angry Video Game Nerd do this one. But man am I satisfied I actually did it and didn't give up.
20:43 Humbuger.
HUMBUGER
Not to mention the randomness of the paper rock scissor game. Some of the items were awesome though. It was hit or miss, but at many times it was pretty good. There is a person who reviewed the series, His Channel name is, "HappyConsoleGamer". Good to see you again loneshewolf74. Always a pleasure. :)
8-bit is family friendly
16-bit is badass
ElliotWashington graphics never matter
When I had this as a kid I would group the task by floor like James and John's task. When waiting for Rockwell do the name game ect. I found it faster getting out of the castle.
Original Game is Anmitsu Hime and changed story, sprites for US localisation.
Same from Yume Kojo Doki Doki Panic in JP ➡️ Super Marion 2 in US or Hokuto no Ken ➡️ Black Belt on Master System
Il love this game !
Imagine this nowadays.
"Oh the only map was divided into 8 sheets of paper."
"Fuck that. Hey Google, which way to the arcade?!"
Humburger!?
19:26 Kind of a shame the whole game wasn't like that. That bit and then the later one reminded me of Shinobi.
I'd say if they cut out the wondering about in the castle, the waiting to get a pass and added a couple of levels like the fighting ninja ones this could have been a good Alex Kidd game. Maybe not up to Miracle World standards but probably better than The Lost Stars.
This game is kind of a letdown. I mean, when I first saw the title, I figured he'd be in some kind of futuristic looking world. Instead it's just him trying to get to an arcade with the only real padding being either having to wait a certain amount of time or trial and error with the puzzles. It's like one of those old Sierra games where one screw up meant you were pretty much screwed and had to start the whole game again.
ah yes.. Sierra! Leisure Suit Larry!
H U M B U G E R
pretty fun game as a kid - I remember back then there was some sega hotline 800 # you could call and IF you could ever get through you could ask how to beat games
they helped me get all the map pieces and told me about bowing 100 times to get a pass........
I remember calling that hotline too! It was a 0055 number!
We called it to beat "Alex Kidd in Miracle World". I got trapped in the Level after the Blackwooda Forest. You were meant to purchase the Peticopter from the shop to fly past the thunder clouds...but i didnt and got stuck! The HelpLine Operater was useless and told me to just keep jumping lol
In hindsight a boy name Alex is attacked by fucking ninjas in the woods on his way to the arcade? How the fuck did this plot get past the sega executives at the time?
The cover clearly shows Alex Kidd punching a ninja. Why not just lose the puzzle levels and keep only the ninja fighting levels? I often wonder if the critique puzzle elements would have made more sense to fans of the anime series this game was originally based on.
If you buy the wind hint for 100 gold, it tells you believe in the gods and they will show you the correct path. If you prey to them 100 times he gives you a pass. Also you can bribe the other guard with 2000 gold.
More like Alex Kidd in ancient Japan
20:43 - Ahh, yes, I enjoy a good HUMBUGER often.
a humburger is actually a thing
He should just google maps the arcade
Justin William This game is from the 90's. What would you except?
you mean from the 80's*. Late eighties
wirti94 Oops...sorry 😅
no problem man :D
wirti94 ^^ Thank you!
Fun!
I remember renting this as a kid and ordering pizza on the phone in the game but i didn't get far lol mum clocked it.. i just watched her haha
2:47 Humbuger? Do they mean hamburger?
I think you mean 20:47
20:43 - "Humbuger". Did Ebeneezer Scrooge write that?
this game reminds of one that used to be on cartoon network known as Courage The Cowardly Dog In Creep TV. It was a mini game that could be played back in the early 2000's...
how many alex kidd games did they make!?
This Is where my desire to play MMORPG's began.
Yes, I agree.
Prince Alex's adventure is over. Maybe you will wonder what on earth inspired someone to make this barely even a game, game.
25:21 You can also go into the shrine and pray 100 x for the travel-pass, then you get it. That's how we did it 30 years ago.
20:43 "Humbuger" makes me laugh. It's not only wrong written, also "Humbug" has a meaning in German, it means "nonsense". So, you can literally buy a "nonsense-burger" here.
Or, "The Story of Alex's Escape During the Coronavirus Outbreak."
You have to wait in certain parts? What is this... Shenmue? xD
athens was where the first olypics was held
This is the localized version of the anmitsu hime game with Alex Kidd characters in it.
I remember buying this excitedly due to the Alex Kidd label and was gutted when it totally sucked
Master System Evolution...
ALSO.... to add to all the hate... Anyone notice that for the ending where he is talking bs about Sega Games being great, they reused the same music from Sonic 1. The level music from The Forest level with the rolling black balls and also the underwater Labrynth zone a bit...
chocada com esse final inútil mdsssss. Eu quebrava a cabeça quando criança, sabendo 0 de inglês 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
I never got the first test and u actually had to get them right
Such a High-Tech world....
This place is definitely an Alex Kidd: High-Tech World.
god damn this game was hard as a kid lol
Alex looks like his appearance in Enchanted Castle.
caraca
Nostalgia no meu Master System Blue eu jogava
Unless there's a clue to find out the answers on Alex's exam, HOW IN THE HELL CAN KIDS FIGURE COMPLICATED QUESTIONS LIKE THESE BACK IN THE 80'S-90'S?!
They couldn't.
To make matters worse: Kids from non-english speaking countries couldn't even figure out this shit at all since there were no other translations.
@@melaniel.4269 Sega should've gave out questions elementary kids would know in the Western versions. I bet the kids in those Japanese schools know this because they have to study hard unlike American schools. (I have no bias about American education as I'm American.)
@@TomboyGamerGal From what i saw and understood (My Japanese is not that great and so far nobody made a proper translation) the questions in the original are more about japanese history and the anime the game was based on. Altough the stupid "Name these 6 women you never saw before" crap is also a thing.
If i'm not mistaken back then it was still Sega Japan doing the translations (hence why they sometimes are a bit of a mess, especially the manuals, for example why in Ghostbusters Gozer is called Gorza) and they might have went a bit overboard with what they thought was appropriate for western players.
I can speak a fair amount of Japanese since I've taken the language for a decade now. Yeah sometimes the translation can be somewhat off. Like in the early Mega Man games Dr. Light is erroneously spelled Dr. Right as L and R are basically the same letter in Japanese.
I actually have this game on the Sega Genesis Flashback made by AtGames, and yeah the console is outright dismal. The game can lag or freeze on me occasionally and it's really annoying. I have to make save states many times, so I won't lose any major progress if the system freezes.
And NO INTERNET at the time!
Esse aí, é super iper mega bom
Je vais à la salle d'Arcade !!! 18:38
clin d'œil à JDG et Seb ;)
Meu Deus, toda essa chateação pra encontrar um fliperama. Na minha infância jogava isso e nunca consegui sair do castelo. Mas agora vi que fora do castelo é ainda mais chato.
Eu nunca consegui zerar
Love the memories of nostalgia it's just a shame that Sega could have done better it could have incorporated a lot more action with platforming and free roaming RPG and that would have made a lot of us Sega fanboy kids happy 😊
Sonic really took inspiration from Alex.
You've missed the yellow cloud at 19:44!
Why make only ONE map? How do they expect to get any business if no one can find them?
