Item Description
The Skipper is in charge, and Gilligan, as ever, is the problem. The Adventures of Gilligan's Island turns the 1960s sitcom into an NES adventure in which you control the Skipper while the computer steers his little buddy, who trails along behind him, wanders off, gets stuck and tumbles into holes with sitcom-perfect regularity. Human Entertainment developed it and Bandai published it in 1990.
Across four levels you explore the island, gather objects, talk with Mr. Howell, Mrs. Howell, the Professor and Mary Ann, and work through the puzzles that move each episode forward. The island is not friendly. Wild creatures, headhunters and the terrain itself chip away at your life bar, the Skipper fights back with his fists or a club, and a time limit hangs over every level. Keeping Gilligan in tow is half the game: when he goes missing you have to track him down, haul him up with a rope or pull him out of a hole before you can carry on. Each level closes with a boss, from a gorilla and a grizzly bear to the headhunters' leader and an undead skeleton, and passwords let you pick up at any of the four levels.
It has a reputation as a frustrating game, and honestly that is part of its charm. Few licensed NES games capture their source so literally, with the Skipper forever exasperated and Gilligan forever lost, and the result plays like a lost episode where the castaways never quite manage to get off the island. As a slice of the era when TV favorites routinely got their own cartridges, it is a real conversation piece, and a fun one to tackle with a friend shouting advice from the couch.
