Game Details

A meta NES RPG where you play as an aspiring retro game collector trying to collect all black box NES games. With every game you collect you get to play a mini-game version of the title to earn power-ups to help out with the main game. A version of the game was also released to promote release of Jeffrey Wittenhagen's book "Twisted Realities: Black Box Challenge" under the name "Jeffrey Wittenhagen's Black Box Challenge". Though the only difference to the game is the title screen.
