I am suprised at the reception of this game. Sure, it is a delivery questionable in many gameplay decisions and visual artifacts, effectively described as a mix between good and bad ideas. Truth to be told, I say all of them are good ideas with some of them horribly executed. Difficulty curve is an apocalyptic mess (the first area is significantly harder than the rest of the areas), and half of the bosses are even worse (Mario will give you nightmares in much more than two ways). It seems more like a collab than like a single effort, and that could be used as a compliment. Quality is shockingly inconsistent and seeking the hidden items is practically useless.

I have always loathed the trap subgenre and this is no exception, but my younger brother just saw me play my first blind playthrough and he was laughing his soul off, especially during the Kirby section, at almost every troll I got. I must admit a few were genuinely funny. Half of the times, I did feel in a Game Boy or Game Boy Color game. The game saves the best for last and the last boss rush, despite an obvious and non-creative troll joke, is not so bad to experience. It is the whole preceeding rest the one that is quite the mindtrip.

But don't tell me that the Conquer the Blow Game trilogy is better than this. This game is better than the three combined. There are more memorable moments here than in those games, and there is an undeniable passion at the act of trying to imprint a Game Boy vibe with an astonishing variety of origial games for the classic videogame geek; it carries that homage spirit of Kayin.

It is very inconsistent, but before watching the average rating, I was expecting the worse thing ever. It wasn't. It's just a mess with more good than bad. The opening screen, for some bizarre reason, has been referenced endless times, like the Plan 9 From Outer Space of fangames. It's fine. That screen has been reinvented more times in troll ways than I can remember. It's not a bad screen really if you really enjoy trap games except for a very frame-precise trigger near the save.

This left a legacy behind, not to mention one of the most famous memes by Chilean fangame legend Vardoc. I wouldn't mind revisiting it. I Wanna Enjoy the Game was boring. Extremely. I still have nausea from it.

So not the worst most famous fangame out there, and I don't regret playing this at all. Now I know what everyone was talking about, including fangame developers, and it was worth it.

Not as bad as most of the reviews make it out to be.
IWTBTGB is one of the first fangames I've ever played and I must admit, the first time it beat the shit out of me, I thought it was so hard. Now turning back to it; it just made me realize how annoying it actually was (and not hard). This fangame contains lots of traps and the bosses are just godawful RNG mashing fiesta. There are no cool platforming segments or anything and the world just feel unpolished. But still something about it makes me doubt if this is actually such an awful game. You see the game has it's charm being one of those old fangames that are just annoying but beating it still feels so satisfying. In the end, after finishing it you will look back and say "Man, that was a load of bullshit but it was still fun."

I kinda enjoyed this one, it has tons of trolls (mostly the typical spike ones) and the bosses aren't particularly good, but it's still a fangame I would recommend .
