8-bit throwbacks are all the rage these days, and I love 'em, but this LCD mock-up REALLY took me back, to the days of frittering away time on car trips or languishing in shoe departments or in waiting rooms biding the conclusion of some interminable maternal appointment. Of course, those old handhelds were limited to advancing through a finite set of Muybridgean tableaux lurching by at a frame or so per second to create the illusion of animation—which the present title is and does not, though part of me wishes it did. In any case, it's not a complicated game, in keeping with those it recalls, but it's a fun diversion. As I say, I do suddenly wish someone would flat-out emulate the herky-jerky grayscale of those gaudy beplasticked one-trick ponies, but I'm grateful for this little revival, trompe-l'œil shadows and scratchy screen and all.
