Oh there have been quite a few regrettable purchases I've made. However, when I first saw this topic, one game immediately sprung up in my head. That game is this piece of crap.

I own quite a lot of Sega Genesis games including garbage like Wolverine: Adamantium Rage and I can safely say that Young Indiana Jones is the worst Genesis game I own by a country mile. What's wrong with this game? Oh let me count the ways.

1. Enemies that move far too fast for young Indy to dodge.
2. Horrible placement of said enemies. Actually, level structure as a whole is awful.
3. No post-damage invulnerability. Watch the health bar just drain away!
4. A nearly useless whip thanks to the mechanics behind it.
5. Very limited gun and grenade ammo.
6. Boring music and graphics (with the exception of the burning blimp at the title screen).

The day I bought that game (December 17th, 2015) would have been one of my worst video game hunting days I've ever had if it wasn't for one thing: I got complete copies of Sonic & Knuckles, X-Men 2: Clone Wars and Desert Strike for $2 each that same day (and Spider-Man: The Animated Series but that one isn't as good as the other three). Even so, buying Instruments of Chaos goes down as one of my biggest bonehead decisions as a gamer.
