screaming genie

i went on an op-shop hunt a few weeks ago, and stumbled across this board game.

Screaming Genie: The frantic 3-D race game with the SCREAMING SOUND.

is it just me, or does this game market itself as evoking emotions opposite to those you want to experience in your leisure time. that, and the graphics look completely horrifying. i think maybe this game provided a source of those terrifying childhood memories for some poor kid. everyone seems to have at least one weird childhood memory where maybe they were just too young to process what was going on. one of the most vivid of these for me was watching a video of some cartoons that someone taped for us. my brother and i used to watch this cartoon all the time about some poor Russian boy called Julio who lost his father, and goes searching for him in a snow storm for Christmas. that shit stays with you.
