Adventure Island isn't just a blatant ripoff, it's literally the exact same game but with a different main character. But it wasn't an illegal ripoff a la Great Giana Sisters; Hudson acquired the rights to the game.

As for the game, it's way too basic and repetitive compared to other platformers even of its day. I'd give it something more like a 4/10 if I had to score it.

How many platformers did you guys play during 1986?

Most of the ones I've played are from the early 90s.

Yeah, I've also gotta disagree it's much worse than platformers of its time. It's a fun game, there weren't any "WTF is this?" moments when I played.
