Bit of an epic long episode, this one. And a bit green screen-y. Apologies for that.
Special thanks to Kingdom of Carts / @kingdomofcarts for providing me with photos and footage of some Tiger LCD games!
You can see the beautiful Tiger LCD screen drawings on seanriddle.com/tigerlcd.html
Also the photos of the PDA version are from old-organizers.com/MorePicts/M...
The R-Zone was released by Tiger Electronics in 1995.

If it’s not music from an Amiga or the game I am reviewing in the video, I probably got any backing music from purpleplanet.com.
Sometimes I use gaming-related content (such as adverts). It takes a huge amount of time to make my videos and using these helps immensely, but if you see your footage and I didn’t credit you, PLEASE let me know so I can put it right.
Thank you for taking the time to check out my channel :3

(Especially the character of Angela.) Plus I loved the boss lady, all I could think of when she went mental was Devolver Digital's own Nina Struthers. It's totally the kind of thing she'd do. Finally, I must mention that I am totally jealous of you playing the R-Zone. Even if it's total baubles. Way to go on the cracking upload, Octy!

Update: Was totally not disappointed!! But I would like to know, where did NN get that stuffed Horace from? Also, 1 Peter 5:8 describes Satan as a roaring lion... Could this be what the "R" stands for, Roaring Lion Zone?
