This week, Tom and Dean discuss the merits of the modern game review and Ghost of Tsushima before diving into Rygar for the NES! Rygar brings us to discussions on the importance of instruction manuals on old games, checkpointing vs. long-term saves, and making blind exploration worth your time. Also, behold what may be the WORST GAME MUSIC TRACK OF ALL TIME. We also talk about how bizarre the actual instruction manual is (it's the source of this episode's title). You can check it out for yourself right here: http://www.thegameisafootarcade.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Rygar-Game-Manual.pdf
