Kabobber & Alligator People...

[rheffera]

...Are Surprisingly Entertaining Games. Much More entertaining than the likes of FROGGO games, Although Alligator People is a bit monotonous, Kabobber is Quite Entertaining to me, Fast Paced Game of Kill or Be killed. It lacks that certain something but i don't understand why activision canned it.

 

How Does everybody else find these two repro / Unreleased games?

While I'm not all that fond of Alligator People, I'm absolutely addicted to Kabobber. The game is complete and polished, and extremely fun and challenging. I believe that the game was supposed to be released in 1983, right about the time of the crash, but Activision continued to release games in 1984, and even 1985 (Ghostbusters, I think) so it's odd that they wouldn't release Kabobber. On the other hand, maybe it was just a bit too oddball. When the entire industry is struggling, even a company like Activision which thrives on creativity, will only release games that will be commercially successful. It's a shame, really. I think Kabobber has become one of my favorites on the system, along with Saboteur, another unreleased classic.

Played Kabobber on the PS2 Activision collection and thought it was ok and own Alligator People and am not really a big fan of it.

Love Kabobber. Only have it right now on the PS2 collection but eventually I'll want to get a repro of it in an Activision cart.
