DInky Digger has to be one of the worst! Honestly, try it out. It's just impossible. The baddies walk way faster than the character you control and it's impossible to last less than a few seconds.

I've never played any of these games until this week, I guess I was put off by the poor ratings of the ones that were reviewed. Anyway I've given them a whirl while keeping my expectations low and I wasn't disappointed.

Wasn't 3-Deep Space one of those games that attempted to create a 3D effect if the player wore those red/green 3D glasses? I'm guessing the result wouldn't have been very convincing.
