Ha ha. I think there is a scoring system in the game, but players could just follow a walkthru or longplay and solve the whole thing, so no point really.

There are quite a few interesting contenders. Surprisingly there is a lot of love for Ghosts N Goblins, and also for the very similar Fire and Brimstone. Do we get to see Turrican or Unreal, Kick Off 2, or my favourite Impossamole, being played in our 10 years compo for the very first time??
