Finally, an Archie video game. I was starting to lose hope that I would never have the opportunity to play a game that involves running around and collecting objects floating in hearts. At least the developers are being faithful to the source material — if anyone ever thought that walking over heart bubbles was a recipe for fun, it was Archie.
I should have warned you about the music before posting the video. If you feel some wetness on the sides of your head, don’t panic. That’s just your ears crying …blood. I’d suggest shoving some gauze in each ear to try and stop the bleeding, but that will just block out every sound except that fucking song from the Archie video looping in your brain.
It is a bit of a comfort to still see developers cranking out absolute garbage in the year 2009. Did you notice how in this Archie game your car smokes a little bit after it hits another car but then just starts back up like nothing happened? That’s a dedication to realism that can only come from something based on the Archie universe.
The game promises around twelve hours of gameplay. That’s a fact. Want another fact? Jesus was eaten by an animatronic dinosaur on the set of Jurassic Park, so he’s not around to protect us from Archie Riverdale Run.
