In 1989 Orion pictures put up $10 million to put out a comedy adventure film about 2 less than intelligent friends who get a sci-fi phone booth and travel through time. Sounds stupid, but the movie is a classic. It made $40 million! So per the NES usual LJN got the rights for the video game. Would it be good or would the curse continue?
The story begins when Rufus summons Bill S. Preston Esq. and "Ted" Theodore Logan for a mission. The boys arrive at different times; first Ted then Bill. They are informed that time-space rebels have gone back in time, kidnapping various historical figures and leaving them stranded in different time periods. So now they must travel to the time periods, retrieve these figures and return them to their correct time periods.
Sounds cool, but it's not. How do you find the items for the historical figures? By jumping into things. It's stupid. The music is fine, but it quits after 2 minutes.
The game is aggravating garbage. Do yourself a favor and never play this game! So here's the inevitable rating....
