Rocky Boots

Back in that time, I used to get on a tandy1000 computer and play this all the time. I used to fool around the different game options because I didn't really understand it. Though I think it has to do with electricity and circuits but it's difficult to tell. Connecting arrow-like plugs into certain connectors creating a mass of kicking boots and ringing bells among other things with a box of vertical lines that you control. It was very fun just to go into the tutorial and pick up a small purple bird moving it to different places in the few rooms that it had.

One of my most favorite things to do was to get the key and unlock the holding cell, which held a skeleton and put everything I could into the cell and lock it up and then try to hide my box of vertical lines in the other vertical lined walls.
The gameplay was very puzzle-like, but it was more of an improvised style. having to connect different sized arrow connectors to create a machine powered by colors and basic shapes which were usually magenta, turquoise, blue, white, black, gray, and purple(there were probably more but I cannot remember). These games are very difficult to understand perhaps because I lack the attention span to read the instructions that constantly litter the background. There is definitely a lot of thinking and use of imagination involved.
Overall this game was very nostalgic to me which give it extra points but I think it takes a while to get used to and would probably be easier to understand if there was some kind of manual or information about the whole point of the game. thought it was not a very big game in the first place and not very many people know about it, I can definitely see how it never really caught on, but I really enjoyed using my imagination with this game, making up stories and plots with the simplicity of all those arrows and boxes and bells and such. When I play it now, I don't know how I spent so much time messing around with it when I was younger but I’m glad I was able to find it.
