Don't be too hasty, I might vote H.E.R.O as I have great memories of it.

I tend to vote with my gut, rather than worry about if the game is actually any good.

Ahh, Hall of the Things. What an amazing game . No sound and minimal animation (if any) but I played it for hours. I think the lack of sound added to it. Memories of going into a screen, releasing loads of fireballs (I think it was fireballs!) then leaving the screen hoping I got the enemies)

Probably too awkward to play on a handheld due to the amount of keys required :(

I’d go for Hall of the Things.
