Hello old games lovers,
Today we celebrate the 35th anniversary of one of the weirdest characters ever appeared in a videogame, Q*Bert. His adventures started in Ocotber 1982 in the arcades and the game was later ported (in 1983) for various system, such as (of course) Atari 2600, Intellivision and Colecovision and in the following years for more modern consoles and computer like VIC-20, NES and Game Boy.
Despite being a simple game concept-wise, it can be hard and frustrating to play, even today. Probably that’s the reason why Q*Bert himself swears in his own language when he got hit by snakes…
