The Goonies
The Goonies' brand of side-scrolling action-adventure centered on a band of kids solving environmental puzzles while dodging traps and enemies. Players navigated distinct areas, each with its own challenges and dangers, and had to strategically use items like water balloons and slingshots. The game's memorable moments came from its clever level design, which forced players to experiment with their limited resources as they explored the varied locales.
