One little metal ball. A whole obstacle course. And every move is up to you. After I featured TOMY’s Magnetic Pac-Man Maze https://youtu.be/fCBA0-q2p9Y , so many of you mentioned Screwball Scramble that I had to revisit the game I remembered from my school library as Run Yourself Ragged! This vintage TOMY game puts a miniature mechanical obstacle course at your fingertips, with buttons, levers, and a dial controlling everything from seesaws and parallel bars to a hidden maze and the final launch toward the bell. No batteries. Just skill—and maybe a little patience. Join me for a look at its history, how Run Yourself Ragged connects to Screwball Scramble, and some hands-on attempts to guide that little ball all the way to the finish! #boardgames #vintage #tomy #genxgrownup - SHOP Screwball Scramble: https://link.amazon/B0hs6uOlj Screwball Scramble L2: https://us.tomy.com/screwball-scramble-2 http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv - CHAPTERS 00:00 Pac-to-Screwball 01:30 Box & Assembly 03:00 Course Tour 05:48 Real-Time Run 07:45 Conclusion

In 1986, Tecmo published the side-scrolling platformer, Rygar, to the arcades. I always enjoyed it, but found it to be pretty punishing and ended up costing me more tokens than I would've liked. So in 1990, when Atari released a translation of Rygar for the Lynx, I was immediately onboard. As a bonus, this version of Rygar turned out to have a gentler ramp-up in difficulty, meaning I could play longer and see more of the levels. And Rygar is still one of my Lynx favorites! #atari #retrogaming #lynx #genxgrownup - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com
