LGR - Rudolph's Magical Sleigh Ride - PC Game Review

Games based on movie licenses are always of such high-quality, am I right? Yeah. Thought so. At least it's got a sweet LED box!

My great aunt did the voice for Mrs. Clause in the stop motion special.

[@JaredtheRabbit]

Say WHAT?!?!

[@Zyhmer]

That is pretty great. :D

[@sameash3153]

Upon the screen blow I my marijuana smoke

[@hayleywaalen2612]

Lucky you.

[@KM-hv1jg]

“Eat, Papa, eat!”

[@Rainbow-Reilly]

Not gonna lie, I have a lot of nostalgia for this game. I saw the movie when I was about three or four and absolutely loved it. I even had an official tie-in plush Rudolph whose nose would light up and sing the song. So of course my parents got me the game, too. The funny thing is I could never beat it, so I spent most my time using the print shop to create elaborate Rudolph-themed comics and I think that was utimately more enjoyable.

[@Tastypieinyourmouth]

Yeah, no matter how hard you try, someone special will come along and take all the credit. Thanks for reminding me what christmas is all about.

[@LGR]

You are quite welcome. Enjoy your stay in reality!

[@VeloxBloo]

Lazy Game Reviews I think I would like to stay in the world of gaming.

[@IGotThePooDoo]

Cosmopolitan Virtual Makeover? I would love to see LGR put a picture of himself in that and let Pushing Up Roses give him a makover.

[@LGR]

It's been done! kzbin.info/www/bejne/emXZmHZ6jaaUgZo

[@IGotThePooDoo]

Lazy Game Reviews Damn, LGR! You look good in Covergirl! :D

[@carlz0r]

You need more fonts to write a note You don't like the look of what you wrote Calibri to make it neat Some Comic Sans to make it cheap And you've got... Too Many Typefonts.. Too Many Typefonts!

[@pgj1997]

You win

[@daveings9485]

The animation is like...surprisingly smooth?

[@Kittyhalk]

My little brother went through a phase where he watched that movie just about every day year round so there is no way I will ever be able to forget that one whether I want to or not

[@rebeccaans]

I LOVED THIS GAME AS A KID! I played it every year around Christmas time and never got tired of it.

[@Adrian_of_Arcane_Lore]

Hard times when the pegnuins have come all the way from the south pole just to mess with santa!

[@hestushenchman]

They're blaming him for global warming.

[@TheSmart-CasualGamer]

@@hestushenchman I mean, he's famous for running a factory and taking worldwide flights, he obviously isn't helping the situation.

[@HeyImDaki]

Holy hell, I totally forgot about this game! I used to play it back in the day when I had a very...limited... selection of games, but I loved every second of playing it anyway. Now I'll look for this game somewhere on the internet and experience some nostalgia.

[@Uncle-Jay]

The box reminds me of a old VHS copy of "Shocker" I used to have, it featured a convict strapped in to an electric chair, being executed. The front was raised a little bit and where the eyes were supposed to be were tiny little yellow lights that flashed on and off. I bought it from a old video store we used to have in the area.

[@tomahzo]

OMFG, that hyper speed intro was hysterical ;D. I can't stop watching it.

[@XaneMyers]

3:25 The overlapping voices remind me of when Sonic Adventure 2's cutscenes are sped-up...

[@outpostorange9580]

Love those seasonal games that try to cash in on the craze of the season

[@katrinacollins4941]

I actually remember this game very vividly from my childhood. I loved it but could never find it again as an adult. Thanks for the nostalgia!

[@krystaldragon17]

0:53 OH MY GOD THAT VHS WAS MY CHILDHOOD. I found it at some random drug store because it was Christmastime and, hey, rudolph. I haven't seen it in years, so all of what I'm saying is pure nostalgia, but I remember enjoying it so much it got me buying rudolph and reindeer plushies every December!

[@Dosgamert]

Dude! Dat KidPix diskette at the beginning! (0:02) Would love to have that game!!

[@frankrtwiw]

I had the video when I was a kid, used to watch it often at Christmas. Looking back, I can't help but wonder...

[@DelRio1991]

I played this a lot as a kid. Like, hours and hours, thinking it was the best thing ever. I was really dumb as a six year old.

[@3choBlast3r]

LGR added me to his circles .. I have no idea if that is some automatic shit that happens to all subscribers etc. *But man I feel so special and flattered* XD ... I love your content mate, thanks for all the hard work!

[@ZacUAX]

Lovin' the classic intros! Very nostalgic.

[@garfiduper5822]

Next edutainment month, I would love to see you cover some of the games by Humongous Entertainment, like the Spy Fox series, or the Pajama Sam series. Loved these games as a kid!

[@LGR]

I do plan to cover some of them, but not for Edutainment Month. They're not edutainment games, they're simply games for kids :)

[@kagemarunl]

Yeah, I'm going to have to use some caps here. Just imagine me yelling it quite loudly and excitedly waving my arms. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR SHIRT! 8D

[@HookerHeels]

Oh my gosh! I used to play this at my grandparents house when I was young. Never could remember the name!

[@oneupgamer5306]

I remember that Rudolph movie! I grew up with that version on VHS. Haven't watched it in years, but the memories are fond.

[@markoforfun]

i just want to say that i love your videos , and i hope you make many more in the upcoming years . and happy holidays

[@KasumiKenshirou]

That LED reminds me of the Commodore 64 port of the Star Wars arcade game. The box had an electronic component attached inside that would play the Star Wars theme (composed of electronic beeps) when you pressed on it.

[@Novabug]

The present dropping part is also familiar to the 8-bit dirge that is Santa's Christmas Capers, difference being you could shoot snowballs in that. Ah, christmas games....

[@stevarino1989]

hahaha lol my younger cousins had this game at their house and I think my grandpa had it too, on his computer, for the kids to play. Can't remember the last time I played it. I remember the bees and the oils. My favorite part were the random thunderstorms when Santa delivered the toys.

[@WatanabeNoTsuna.]

That sped up intro, though! 😂 🤣 😂 🤣

[@fastfredyischristian]

The Too Many Cooks reference is the best joke I will hear all week.

[@shadyjoanneboots]

OH MY GOD is that Cathy Weseluck voicing Rudolph??? As soon as he spoke I immediately heard Spike. Mind blown!

[@matthewdunk]

Looks like you had some Good Times! Nice Too Many Cooks reference.

[@AndraJapan2]

i actully liked that movie as a kid XD..........though i saw it way later in the 90s on my vhs tape that sadly was stolen XD in grade 2

[@BrewmasterDonegan]

SoranovaArtMain i loved it as well! it was actually a really nice movie :3

[@turnipss]

Love the Christmas setup LGR! I tried for something similar.

[@420alphaomega]

great to see the intro back :)

[@Poki3]

Now I want to see a Too Many Typefonts wideo in the style of Too Many Cooks. :/

[@SoujiMonaru]

I never really got into PC games as a kid, since all we could afford were board games, but I did eventually save up for a SNES when they were about two years old and I enjoyed them to no end. Never got anything Christmas related on the system, but I did buy myself some games for Christmas a few times for the SNES!

[@lifeisgood12341]

I really liked that movie when I was little

[@AngusBeer]

Oh my god the caffeine scene XD

[@ROBLOXfilms49]

You are epic Clint, I mostly like your PC game reviews, you should have 1 million subscribers :)

[@himynameisben95]

When i was a lad I had a book that had a little light up led on it. It may have been a Rudolph book, actually. I also had a couple books with a button on them that you pressed and it played... a sound. Music, probably. I don't remember. Pretty neat, though.

[@Raelunil]

I was obsessed with Rudolph as a kid, and this was my one and only Christmas game. I loved it so much, even though it's little more than a couple of mini games. Five year old me adored it anyway ❤

[@ZephniStrife]

The design and polish of this game is sooo polished and underated. The designers / artists deserve a payrise, or something.. polish

[@TheFabledSon]

I like the callback intros. it is its own present for the holiday.

[@EpicLPer]

3:49 - Wait a minute... Is that Cathy Wesluck's (Spike) voice?

[@ClassicGamerReviews]

I love those small audio add ons like 00:40 they add that extra charm. Also I feel like its been awhile since I've seen you sip from that can in the intro?

[@TheTrout9000]

So, I just found your channel a few weeks ago and have been going through all of your content. This, and the babysitter ninja weird game prove that you are destined for sainthood for your patience. Bravo, sir.

[@LGR]

Haha, thank you.

[@duncanmoignard2405]

Hi lgr!! Oh your a great guy! You know a computer game doesn't have allot of meaning until someone makes light of it and adds allot of friendly energy to it which you do, these things go hand in hand man ! Stay fresh :-)

[@macbuff81]

I loved that printer comment. My own printer has decided to be evil for a few days now...I am considering giving it a time out :)

[@DreamcasticChannel]

I used to own this game as a kid! I completely forgot about it until now! I remember really enjoying the present delivery game. I don't think I ever watched the movie though.

[@NOTLeavingLV]

KZbin recommended me this, I thought it was new. I was excited. I am still happy to watch it, but no 2020 LGR Christmas??

[@mnraper]

Hey, that I watched that movie twice in my childhood. Brings back memories.

[@TheRamblingG]

Great Holiday Special :)

[@curb9254]

You make me want to get into collecting big box games lol

[@PhreakinJ0nny]

I used to have that Rudolph movie on VHS. Looking back on it, it really was crap, but It left me some great childhood christmas memories

[@rhysatiynr]

This was one of my fave films as a kid...

[@CaptainSouthbird]

This video was totally worth it just for the high-speed intro. (3:23) Ah, to not code proper timing routines.

[@hard4games]

Dat Commander Keen shirt. Nice.

[@LordOverTheLightOfRa]

Holy crap this brings me back.

[@martinhowser4094]

You only ever need comic sans. Resume? Comic sans. Birthday card? Comic sans. With sympathies funeral note? Comic sans.

[@Oli414]

Oh my god I used to play this game as a kid! I totally forgot about it!

[@ClassicContagious]

I remember Wizard Works from there horrible packaging of some of my favorite SSI RPGs and Strategy games.

[@thedoogy9878]

oh !! that commander keen shirt ... so jelly

[@Highretrogamelord]

Commander Keen-shirt FOR THE FRIGGIN' WIN !!!!!

[@rijden-nu]

LOL that cheesy dweepy Winter Wonder Land song at the end :) Beautiful, hilarious review. Keep 'm coming!

[@Brancliff]

I need that outro MIDI!

[@tyy1823]

crazy...i had this when i was 3 years old and had no memory of it until i found this video

[@childalpha6954]

3:28- Well now we know why his nose is red

[@KalabrosVanHouten]

Gotta go get that Commander Keen shirt now.

[@Redhotsmasher]

One of the elves sounds like the elves in the Elf Bowling series of freeware games lol.

[@posey9573]

The movie is of my top five Christmas flicks but I never knew it had games. Now I know why.

[@DergEnterprises]

I see you got the 50th Anniversary Ed of Rudolph.

[@miiiikku]

Time for an LGR Christmas special.

[@brainstar64]

Santa's workers sure loves coffee.

[@Rakiarmas]

My four Traditional Christmas Movies are Die Hard, Die Hard 2, Batman Returns & Nightmare Before Christmas. I would have more like that Scrooge movie with Bill Murray, but these are all I have at this moment.

[@bloodcoveredangel27]

omg please do Anastasia I always wanted to see that beyond the trailer they did on the VHS tape.

[@CamilleWright95]

i LOVED this game as a kid

[@slycooperscane]

Another outstanding video.

[@LGR]

Thanks :)

[@slycooperscane]

Lazy Game Reviews Your welcome. You really deserve it with all the hard work you put into your videos.

[@Infernape7890]

So that's why Santa stopped throwing things down chimneys. He stopped caring. My parents made their own variations of what Santa did and said he went through the door, ate the cookies, and put the presents down. So he's quite a slob in my parents' far more modernized versions of the stories. He also goes to the stores and buys the presents at those places and my grandma is one of his helpers. Somehow, I never questioned this until I got older. My nephew, sadly, is getting the old school stuff that seems less plausible than a jolly fat guy breaking in through the door and buying everything at Wal-Mart. Santa also gets money donated to him by parents, who are also his helpers. My parents are kind of masters at making this seem plausible. They really should remake the Santa stories and mention he breaks in through the door with magic door opening powers, now that I think about it. And, I think I've been inspired to do this now.

[@AnkfordPlays]

I actually remember quite liking this version of the Rudolph story (the cartoon I mean) the artstyle was kinda bland and they didn't bring anything special to the table but it was perfectly servicable for my 8 year old self and at least it had John Goodman which is always a plus in my book.

[@TyphoidBryan]

"We shoo can, Woodolph!"

[@d3jake]

Aaaand, now I"m distracted by a Commander Keen shirt.

[@Fl0xtpvnk]

Holy phoenix-esque animations!

[@ocass66]

7:08 THE TETRIS CASTLES IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER!

[@LGR]

AKA, the Kremlin :)

[@Dalbert342]

Lazy Game Reviews I'm suprised you didn't yet do Master of Orion review.....that's my all time fav DOS game....:)

[@JumboDS64]

4:04 He sounds a bit like Tommy Pickles... mostly the word "careful".

[@derekbell4758]

The red gift looks like a happy meal from mc Donalds

[@Retromicky82]

So the only person who will get presents in this game is clark griswald . I rember seeing this cartoon about on the shelves of shops and i think its still re released every year i think . Looks a ok film . Print studies games i see everywhere . Mostly disney .

[@SwedishEmpire1700]

Wizardsworks made alot of SSI and RPG game compilations back in the day, i own a few of their boxes.

[@LGR]

Yup, Wizardworks cashed in on all sorts of licenses in the mid to late-90's. They've got a ton of classics published, although they developed precious little on their own.

[@SableRain]

3:28 cracked me up! XD

[@DoomBunnyKiller00]

WizardWorks...they also did the D!ZONE and Duke!ZONE series' *cough shovelware cough* for Doom and Duke Nukem. Welp...that explains it.

[@seancoyne3298]

I loved that movie as a kid

[@ooliveric]

i had this as a little kid

[@ShdwHg]

Huh. I'm probably outing myself in a way I probably shouldn't, but Rudolph sounds almost exactly like Spike from that _Pony_ show. Except looking into the list of actors on IMDb (for the film, since IMDb only lists that and not the game), it appears it's not Spike's voice actress, Cathy Weseluck, but actually Kathleen Barr, the voice of Trixie. Not sure why that'd sound familiar, since Rudolph sounds nothing like Trixie. Maybe she can do a good Spike impression? Maybe the game could only afford Weseluck (who actually _was_ in the film, with the all-important roles of "Sparkle the Sprite" and "Elf Crowd Member #1")? Maybe I'm overthinking this? Yeah, let's go with that one. Also, apparently Rudolph's father, Blitzen, is Grounder from _Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog_ (Garry Chalk), there's some fox voiced by Eric Idle of _Monty Python_, the villain is Whoopi Goldberg, Santa is John Goodman, Bob Newhart and Richard Simmons are in here... all that talent, yet almost nobody remembers this thing at all. Rather impressive.

[@Mitzi_DelverVRC]

I find this really interesting, but probably just due to the fact I REALLY like Spike's voice. Dunno why. Anyway, thanks for the info. I hear Lani Minella, the voice actress for Rouge the Bat, was also the voice actress for Bubsy (back when that was a thing). Honestly something you'd never really guess.

[@RiasGremoryIsLife]

Haha, I also thought it was Cathy Weseluck. Well, thanks for doing the work for me! Saved me some time :3

[@juanantoniorodriguezfernan1455]

Well, the Rudolph in the movie sounds nothing like Spike, so I guess that's actually Cathy Weseluk.

[@3choBlast3r]

I don't get it man ... why, why do you people watch shows made for little girls? I mean ... what would even make you try it out? I watched the bronie docu .. and all it did was freak me the fuck out. It makes no sense to me .. seeing teen dudes/grown up men going all fanboy over some show for little girls .. it .. it makes no sense. And really I don't mean to insult you guys .. but I just can't wrap my mind around the fact that you guys actually watch something like that and without trolling really enjoy that stuff

[@RiasGremoryIsLife]

3choBlast3r It's fun. That's all there is to it. Fun.

[@SpeedySPCFan]

They've got LED boxes. LED. Boxes.

[@Lightspeedhalo]

The LED was more interesting than the game, just look at that buttery smooth blinking light gameplay at 60fps 1080p 😏

[@DomeCandyGames]

DUDE! What's up with bee hives in Christmas games?? I just reviewed a super obscure game called The Lost Reindeer and bee hives are one of the "enemies" among flying sharks and sea horses, but yeah...

[@jamiemarchant]

Marry Christmas Clint! I wonder if any fully boxed copies of the game where damaged by 90s battery acid.

[@caolila123]

Is that LED always blinking or can you turn it on/off? Aside from removing the batteries I mean, if that's even possible without destroying that battery-"jacket" thingy. If it's always on, talk about limited shelf life... although I wonder how many months/years that LED can run on two AAs ^^

[@StraytheSkies]

i used to like the musical when i was kid
