For under $30 you receive eight full arcade titles. The selection is impressive, but the lack of a true trackball control and the persistent dead-zone issues can diminish the fun. With minor tweaks to stick sensitivity and dead-zone handling, this collection could surpass the classic 2000 PlayStation release. A few updates, perhaps adding the original 1989 Golden Tee, could cement its place as the definitive home experience.
Tetris Forever is a remarkable tribute to one of the most iconic games in video game history.

While minor UI and quality-of-life issues persist, they don't detract from the overall excellence of the compilation. With its careful curation and the sheer love put into the project, Tetris Forever is a must-have for any Retro-sensitive gamer.
Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is without a doubt legendary game and this remake kept that original flair and gameplay loop in tact while adding nice visuals and solid UI to it.
