The controls were also rather limited to a well timed shunt in a particular direction but despite its shortfalls, Dragon's Lair saw Dirk become a huge part of young gamers' lives. Though it only played through for ten minutes, it was so goddamn tricksy if felt like hours. The result allowed this manly man with his tin hat plenty of opportunities to show off his sword swinging skills as he made his way through the wizard's castle, past monsters and ghoulies galore, all with this Disney-esque tone and look that had kids transfixed. In the early 80s! There are no words.ĭirk himself was a brave and highly skilled knight, if somewhat easily scared at times, which all added to the beautiful graphics and design, brought about by ex-Disney animator, Don Bluth.

You were basically playing a Disney movie on your TV. Pixels? Pixels? Dirk's better than pixels. Laserdisc or arcade, however you got your dose of Dirk, it was utterly, amazingly, astoundingly astonishing. I experienced no staining with these shades and they removed very easily.When Dirk first blundered into our lives, screeching and screaming at any form of danger, it was nothing short of a revelation. It isn’t meant to be used on its own in my opinion and works best on top of other shades. There’s a single topper shade here in white which had a flakier texture and was best applied with a finger. The single shimmery satin shade was the best in performance as it was pigmented, soft and velvety in texture, and quite easy to apply and blend. Some did require a bit of building for the best intensity but you can get some very bright, fun looks from them with a good cream base and a little patience. The purple and pink paired up nicely together, the neon orange and yellow, or the yellow and blue, there are any number of fun looks you can create with it! The colors also mimic the game nicely with shades of bright yellow representing Pac-Man, orange representing Clyde, a bright fuchsia to represent Pinky, and Inky’s shade is here to in a soft teal! There’s sadly no red to represent Blinky!Īlthough most of these shades were matte in finish I thought they were very easy to apply and blend with a silky texture that wasn’t overly powdery. But I had a lot of fun with them and thought they paired up well together. I don’t normally like colors like this and they aren’t something I’d calmly use because I’ve become a more natural, neutral kind of girl in my older age. The palette contains seven matte shades one shimmery satin and one sparkle shade that worked best as an overcoat. The palette contains bright shades of orange, fuchsia, purple, blue green, and yellow. The palette contains nine shades all in different sized well with a total weight of 0.36 oz. The good news is none of the shades stained my lids and removed very easily. Such dyes can cause staining and anyone with sensitive eyes or allergies should avoid using these as you could develop an infection or have an allergic reaction. It makes no note or warning about using it on eyes but does contain some dyes that are not FDA approved such as Red 40 Lake. It is made in China but has no weird plastic smell. I am squealing over how cute this is and how many good memories it brings back. The four corner shades have imprints of Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde and the middle one of Pacman. This comes housed in a plastic compact featuring an entire game of Pac-Man printed on the clear lid. Here’s my review of the new Wet n Wild x Pac-Man Game Over Eyeshadow Palette! The last one being my favor with the bright oranges and yellows. I literally just got the Wet n Wild x Pac-Man Game Over Eyeshadow Palette and I typically take a little while longer to test out a product before I post a review but dude, I’ve actually created four looks with it in 24 hours haha. Wet n Wild has really been kicking it out of the park with some of these launches lately! I was loving the Game of Thrones nod when they launched the Fire Dragon vs Ice Dragon Collection! I can’t wait to see what else they have coming up especially for Fall 2019 as I always find Fall releases the best releases of all. What a fantastic ode to the legendary game! My gateway drug into the world of gaming started with Pac-Man! I remember taking turns playing it with my dad when I was super young. Wet n Wild x Pac-Man Game Over Color Palette is a new, limited edition eyeshadow palette that launching now at drugstores.
