On an (unintentional) halloween theme, is 'Frankensteins monster' for the VCS any good?
Theres a PAL copy on ebay and I might buy it
I heard fairly good things about it on classicgaming.com

Matty: Gameworld released Data Age titles in PAL in Europe/Oz.

Yeah, its a pretty good game - the best by Data Age/Gameworld IMO. If you want it you've got me to contend with coz I'm the high bidder

YEa, Frankenstein is a cool game, it has some unique monster graphics where he comes tward the screen growling and stuff. It in my opinion the best DataAge game ever.

Frankensteins monster is one of my favorite games, at any season... you have to beat the clock through halloween influened pitfall challanges... its intense, spooky, and its one of the few atari games that have a proper ending....

Frankensteins Monster does exist as a PAL version. I played it at a friend's house about 14 years ago. Little did I know that it would end up being so hard to find in this format.
