The Blues Brothers PC

The Blues Brothers is an arcade game developed by Titus Interactive, which refers to John Landis' famous 1980 film with John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd in the leading roles.

The product in question resembles in many ways the most famous creation of a French company, namely Titus the Fox. The player plays the role of one of the Blues brothers (before the start of the game we decide on the choice of the hero), and his task is to find five musical instruments, which boils down to a successful exit in each of the several stages offered by the program. The boards are swarming with enemies that we can annihilate by throwing boxes we occasionally encounter. Since there are few boxes, it will be equally important to make long jumps to avoid other enemies. Direct contact with the opponents causes a loss of vitality. If the energy drops to zero, we will automatically lose one of the additional "lives". As in any platformer, the Blues Brothers should collect bonuses in the form of turntables. Completing a hundred discs will result in a heart symbolizing the hero's vitality.

The game features decent low resolution visuals (EGA and VGA modes) and a complete lack of sound effects. During the struggle we can only hear simple musical pieces, bringing associations with film.
