We Picked up A Q*bert!

Q*Bert has long been the number one game on our list, and it's definitely proved the most difficult game we've actively been searching for to find!
But we finally found one!
Q*Bert is an isometrically viewed puzzle #arcade game (and our first puzzle game) designed by Warren Davis for Gottlieb. Q*Bert went on to become Gottlieb's only smash hit success, and was merchandised in every corner of the market, including its own TV show!
Q*Bert had a less well known but interesting sequel, called Q*Bert's Qubes, which was published under the Mylstar name (when Gottlieb was owned by Columbia), and it's one of our favorites. Thankfully, they're played on identical hardware, and thus we can play it on the original Q*Bert cabinet!
We're so happy to have this game in our collection. It will provide joy to us and those who come and visit us for many years to come!

Great video as always. So glad to see you achieved your quest of finally getting a Qbert. Some games just fall into your lap at times and other games really make you work for that score. Nice addition!
