WTMG’s Leo Faria: “I really tried to appreciate the fact another classic gaming franchise from the earlier days of the medium was finally making a comeback, cementing its legacy, but I had a miserable time playing Montezuma’s Revenge: The 40th Anniversary Edition. It’s buggy, confusing, and uninspired. It’s easy to forgive the clunkiness of the original, since it was released more than 40 years ago, but we expect quality of life enhancements from a fully-fledged remake. There are none. Everything we could have lived without from the original is featured, resulting in a game that tarnishes the reputation of this classic to a wider audience of players. If anything, I legit had more fun playing the ROM of the original game, included as a bonus, than the remake itself. Not that it was that much of a feat, of course…”
