Trivia

The difference between the two time periods visited; 1931 & 1986; is 55 years. This is another nod to the movie trilogy, which was partially set in 1955.

User Reviews

1931...again!

Marty begins the game locked up in the Hill Valley courthouse, waiting to be re-educated in Edna Strickland's dystopian 1986. After escaping with the alternate Doc they head back to 1931 for what feels like the hundredth time. Fortunately, in this game the action is not centered around the town square and the alley behind the soup kitchen but mostly young Emmett's lab and the Hill Valley High School.

Story-wise, it's nothing too brilliant. It feels more like a stop-gap entry in the series than a complete story on it's own. There haven't been many epic moments in the series so far, but young Emmett swinging by his feet from the clock-tower was a nice touch.

The graphics are still bad and the controls are horrible, but the game is so charming that you won't care.
