Look, we're going to admit something up front. ROM CHECK FAIL makes almost no sense as a game. But that doesn't mean it's not fun to play. Here's the basic premise: let's see what happens if you cross a bunch of classic games including Pac-Man, Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Brothers, Defender, Space Invaders, Asteroids, Gauntlet, and a few others that we can't put our fingers on at the moment. The result is an unpredictable game that changes every few seconds. You haven't lived until you've tried shooting aliens to your left and right while using a Space Invaders style gun that only shoots straight up.
The game was created in three weeks as part of The Independent Gaming Source's Video Game Name Generator competition. The idea was to come up with a random name for a game and then design a game around it. All told independent game developers came up with 48 really odd little games that lived up to their really odd names.
