๐ฉ Welcome back to Episode 3 of "First Two Hours" where I tackle 1986, a nostalgic indie game capturing 1980s arcade culture. What starts as a promising retro adventure with cinematic storytelling and classic beat-em-up action quickly becomes frustrating when the game forces me through mandatory arcade mini-games with no escape option. Watch as I experience the highs of authentic 80s atmosphere and the lows of player-unfriendly design choices. Will this indie title earn a spot in my Steam library, or become my first early exit? Join me for this honest, unfiltered gaming review!
