Scored Frankenstein's Monster

[OldAtarian]

Picked this one up in a small lot of commons yesterday. I'm trying to round up 5's and 6's right now, and the occasional 7 when I can afford them. Anything 8 and up rarely dips down into my price range, unfortunately, unless it happens to be in a lot of 150 commons and Homey don't play that.

I have that one and was surprised how good a game it is...

I own this one and it is a surprisingly good game from Data Age and a great score for you too and perfect with Halloween just around the corner.

How much did you pay?

Thank and the Donkey Kong hack is also a blast I want to say Ataridogs did that.

It was $20 shipped with M-Network Football and M-Network Baseball, neither of which I have so I fill in some common holes at the same time. Probably not a super good price, but I don't see Frankenstein's Monster every day so I figured I better grab it.

I also enjoy the DK Escapes hack...

I just got the same game for $10.99 off ebay, waiting for it to arrive in the mail.

[the.golden.ax]

Ah yes... but did you get one that was CIB?

 

Picked mine up in this lot for $45.49 shipped. Box is about a 6 out of 10 but even has the note. The other games nearly paid for the whole lot.

Frankenstein is highly underrated. It's an excellent game with awesome mood and is mega challenging. Good nab.

Damn! Nice find!

[OldAtarian]

I saw a video of it on YouTube, and it looks like it borrows a lot from Pitfall. Does anyone know if it's a hack?

[Rom Hunter]

No hack.

Do you think it's underrated? I know alot of people that thought this was a awesome game even back then. I remember picking this up at the *crash blowout* sale back then for $4! May days and hours invested in this gem. Definitely the best DA game-I know this is not saying much....

[Stan]

Well, perhaps underrated was not the best word, underappreciated works better. Most people who have played this say it's awesome. Sad it was made by such a generally piss-poor company.
