Novelty is a pretty classic adventure game, featuring 8 main stages (and a final) each with some minor gimmick and a boss. Unfortunately, it's not a game that holds up the best, ending up feeling really awkward and uninspired.
A lot of the stages boil down to just needle, and these are definitely the weakest. The needle design is very outdated, with a lot of jumps that are a bit awkward, particularly in the infinite jump stage, and the screen wrap stage, which has some jumps that are really out of place in difficulty.
Another sore spot is the traps, which are often in annoying places. The worst offenders are the second stage, which is pure pick a path guesswork and thus extremely annoying to play, and the seventh, which adds traps at the end of slow autoscroller sections.
Of course, the game is not all bad. The black and white gimmick is awesome, definitely the most fun stage for me. In addition, the bosses are pretty decent, if a bit boring and unoriginal.
Overall, this game is an alright one to play, but I wouldn't really recommend it unless you have nothing else to play. I think the second game in this series does a lot of the same ideas much better, so I would recommend playing that one over this.

Honestly, playing Novelty II before this one makes this one look really underwhelming and not as fun in the process. Still a very good starting point, and without this we wouldn't have Novelty II.

When I reviewed the 2nd game I said I felt "extremely neutral" towards it, and I feel the exact same way about the sequel. There's some "novel" gimmicks for sure, but the execution could not be more bland to me, nothing stands out because the level design is just not there to let any of these gimmicks shine in the slightest. This leaves the game feeling empty or devoid of anything substantial, and is massively disappointing. My favorite part was the music in the white and black stage because that's a really good final fantasy song.
