I played it on release date for Amstrad 464 CPC. I may have been 11 or 12 yo. Still have the box and the tape. It was the first game that prompted me to draw maps and write down codes to be able to progress. All the teleport system gave me a feeling of none linearity that deeply shacked my thought process. It is indeed a fond memory, and of the probably hundreds of games I played since then, it remains one of the keystones of my gaming memories.

Ace Ventura
Ace VenturaWouldn’t it be cool if there was a world where people actually paid you to hang out with beautiful women and rescue kidnapped animals? Where ugly tropical shirts were still in fashion? Where obnoxious behavior was admired and even rewarded? Well, my jungle friends, there is. It’s the word of Ace Ventura, and only a loo-OOO-ooo-ooo-ser would NOT go in there.
