Reviews for Harry Goes Home (#2244)

Review by YOR on 16 Dec 2017 (Rating: 1)

I came across this game after looking up the games in the 1983 Cambridge Awards which Oligopoly was a participant and placed third. This was not placed and has a lowly average score of 3.10, and I can clearly see why. So in this game you control Harry who has to retrieve the key to his house and go home, but he has to do so whilst avoiding mines, why he has a house in the middle of the minefield is anyone's guess? The gameplay itself is pretty basic and the concept itself is so bad it's actually quite funny. Plus it was published by Pulsonic, who brought us Butterfly, but while this is 1 material, truth be told this isn't anywhere near as awful as Butterfly was, it's just as bad and ridiculous but at least it's a game, unlike Butterfly. But it's still a really bad game, especially when you look at its competition at the 83 Cambridge Awards, let's just say it didn't stand a chance.
