I do not know whether it is a general trend or not, but my "career" gamer in the early stages is full of small things: the original games were difficult to find, GRAIL exhibited in glassy windows as unattainable trophies to choose almost by chance, only on special occasions.
The real benefactors were others in those times, like a photo shop in Via M. offering the occasional customers, in addition to original productions pseudo-marked Wizardsoft, unattractive compilation of consecutively numbered, similar to Hit-Parade which were sold to local markets with the success of the moment, the covers were amateur, made in a deliberately rough printed MPS 800 series.
So immersed in listening to Nik Kershaw and Mike Oldfield with an antediluvian tape, I came into possession of a collection of four games, among which dominated the clone of Space Invaders Avenger said, Commodore / Hal, who load correctly on average once in thirty, I had developed a set of complicated rites to facilitate loading, including tapping his fingers repeatedly with the door opening of the cassette unit and press the C key = at regular intervals.
No ritual was necessary instead to load the B-side, set to begin offering what for me has always been the "child's play" and that the unknown assembler instead of the collection was called "Henrys huose" classic of eror stump which I still remember with some affection.
's strange to think that the colorful and pixelated protagonist fitted cap can relate in some way digital avatar neonato principino Henry di Gran Bretagna, e probabilmente ne fu stupito anche il programmatore Chris Murray, quando si trovò a dover modificare il titolo e la grafica del suo "Home Sweet Home" per meglio accordarsi con la nascita del nuovo erede in un inedito e furbo tie-in; per un curioso caso del destino, il "trattamento" italiano realizzato dalla Pubblirome riportò echi dell'originale con un "casa dolce casa" che rese una piratesca giustizia postuma al prodotto di Murray.
Queste modifiche furono richieste con insistenza dalla più inglese delle software house inglesi, la English Software, che immaginava chissà quali meravigliosi incassi approfittando del lieto evento, al punto da spingersi a donare Commodore entire stations to the royal house while trying to make the beautiful game. We do not know if Charles and Diana have ever actually engaged in overcoming the ostium eighth level, what is certain that I was won over by this game totally, captivated with wonder. In the new levels
stuffed crowns, diamonds and real echoes medieval, Henry's House as part of a standard fixed screen platform whose only purpose seems to be the recovery of a number of mundane objects to pass to the next room. The vision part of the graphic novel, in which everything seems unusually large and distorted, which is typical of the imagination that only children are able to sublimate, in which the deformity is always mixed with amazement and surprise that can generate all sorts of monstrosities or wonder.
Looking for a key that is always in the most inaccessible, you can relax to a delicious series of dynamic sound effects, including the jump modulated with the height of the small Henry that can generate novel musical harmonies, the jump this enables it to become almost as epic as Mario (or rather, Jumpman) coin-op in the beautiful Crazy Kong.
The tension of the sequence of eight rooms to be addressed is interrupted by an interlude in which the rogue prince capers around laterally from one port to another malicious scrutinized by a shield. This sequence provides methods of play never predictable, the primary aim is always defined and constant, but constantly changing in ways and in the dynamism of the scenarios: moving a brush, a sink to empty, a parrot to release microsfide are some of the thousands that are constantly being proposed.
levels can not be described effectively in a rational way, it is useful rather than rely on a single stream of consciousness Joyce (e) vocatore ...

I think the house is the most fascinating for the human race more than others because it reveals the inner image, embodying the fears, joys and memories of a lifetime. Henry's house is full of challenges and troubling secrets, and once entered, it will be difficult to get out.
