The Angry Video Game Nerd is back with another episode, and this time he's taking on Fester's Quest. In this classic game for the Nintendo Entertainment System, you play as Uncle Fester from The Addams Family, and your goal is to save your town from invading aliens.
The Nerd starts off the episode by giving us a bit of history about the game. He explains that Fester's Quest was one of the first games released by Sunsoft for the NES, and it was based on a Japanese game called "Dragon Spirit". He also tells us that the game received mixed reviews when it was first released, with some people loving it and others hating it.
As he begins to play the game, the Nerd is quickly struck by its difficulty. He comments that the game seems to be punishing him just for playing it, with enemies appearing out of nowhere and draining his health. He also notes that the game is very repetitive, with the same enemies appearing over and over again.
Despite these frustrations, the Nerd soldiers on, determined to beat the game. He takes us through each level, giving us his thoughts and commentary along the way. He points out the various weapons and power-ups that are available, and explains how they can be used to make the game easier.
One of the most challenging parts of the game, according to the Nerd, is the boss battles. He notes that each boss has a unique pattern that you have to figure out in order to defeat them. He also comments on how frustrating it is to have to start over from the beginning of the level every time you die.
As the episode progresses, the Nerd becomes increasingly frustrated with the game. He rages at the screen, calling it a "piece of shit" and questioning why anyone would ever want to play it. He even takes a break from the game at one point to play the original Legend of Zelda, just to remind himself of what a good game looks like.
Despite all the rage and frustration, the Nerd eventually manages to beat the game. He triumphantly throws his controller in the air and declares his victory over the game. He ends the episode by giving his final thoughts on Fester's Quest, calling it a "tough but fair" game that is definitely worth playing.
Overall, this episode of the Angry Video Game Nerd is a fun and entertaining look at one of the NES's most challenging games. The Nerd's commentary is hilarious and relatable, and his frustrations with the game are all too real. Whether you're a fan of Fester's Quest or just enjoy watching people struggle with difficult games, this episode is definitely worth checking out.
