I know, I know. You're thinking "Don't bash the 'zerk, man. It's a classic. You can't do that. Don't bash the 'zerk." Yeah, but they're all classics, aren't they? And that doesn't mean that I have to love them all does it?

I can summarize this game in a 3rd grade book report style:

This game includes robots that shoot. There are also electric walls. After a while a guy comes after you if you take too long. The End.

P.S. the robots walk.

I'm not sure why this game is called "Berzerk". The guy doesn't go berzerk. The robots get faster in the higher levels, but they certainly aren't berzerk. Nor does the game inflame my passions to a point where I become berzerk.

It should have been called "Adequate-zerk" "Satisfactory-zerk" or "Reasonably Sufficient-zerk".

And correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no rhyme or reason to the room structure. It's not like you're setting off on some particular path. The doors mean nothing.

And so for all you C students who have too much time for a bad game but not enough time for a good game, I reccomend "Berzerk".
