The greatest or worst video game ever made
I can’t decide if Penn & Teller are avant garde geniuses or just really clueless about how to make a good video game.
At any rate, all six owners of the Sega CD almost found out at some point in the mid-’90s, but unfortunately “Penn & Teller’s Smoke and Mirrors” was cancelled sometime between the time the video game magazines got to review it and its release date.
Luckily, now even those of us who have never bought this piece of shit console add-on can get a taste of Penn & Teller’s bizarre near-foray into the world of video games. If you’ve ever wanted to drive a bus across the state of Nevada in real time (with no artistic embellishments added) or shoot a tiger in the face with a nail gun given to you by a carnie, this game is for you.
Check it. And check the gloriously pixelated screenshots.
