After having played SMB Special on the Remastered engine I went and looked or a SMB1 hack that was just a remake of Special, since the OG one in PC-88 is like, not really great, I'll be the second or third person to say it, and this had a Set on retroachievements so fuck it, Let's see what this is all about
So, Special, the true "Lost Levels" since not much know that Hudson did a mario game in 1986 (even if that name was also kinda given to the e-reader levels in SMA4 but, whatever) and it adds a few items and enemies, and I'll be honest, these add next to nothing if you ask me, they are neat, but nothing really groundbreaking
Level design: is fine, there are some annoyances here and there, and some terrible one tile jumps in some levels, or let's say, a mushroom on a tile ground where it can be blocked and trap you, neat stuff
Items: It adds some but let's be real, outside of the hammer which don't do much, the items are hidden and kinda obscure, you may not even get more than one in a normal run.
Set: This one is rough, specially the 1-up ones and a few "No death run" ones and add the "Kill bowser with fireballs" on top of that, this is going to take you a bit to master
Set Difficulty: 3.9/10

![[RA] Kirby Super Star Ultra - Popstar Suplex Championship
[The True Arena] Become a true champion using only Suplex Kirby without a Helper
This was so misserable, but I got it, after hours of trying, man, this is single handedly hardest achievement on the set, not even the 20 helper one was this bad, it was tedious, but not this bad.
This is a grind oriented one for sure, people say its mostly skill and, imo, not at all, this requires you to sit there doing nothing until you get a chance to attack, and memorization, because some bosses have a pattern you can follow, so no, its not entirely skill based

![[RA] The Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse
Been a while since I recorded something for this.
So, Magical Quest, its a game I had when I was younger and played it whenever I was in the mood, I didnt recorded every cheevo because this game is kinda boring for these so I just recorded the hard mode cheevo Heartless which basically is Complete the game in hard mode with no hearts this was kinda painful to do.
The set is not really hard, but it will take time, and at least 3 playthroughs
