first game is so cryptic. The later levels in episode 2 really flip my ish. Had to consult a walk through for number of levels. However, I had no such problems with the other 2 games in the series. Anyone else feel the same? Also, the later levels are waaay too long.

The first game is the weakest, I think. It starts off pretty bad, but gets better as it goes on. Sucking Grits on Route 66 is pretty solid, and the beginning of Rides Again (I haven't finished it) is pretty good.

Episode 2 in rides again is the best episode out of all games IMO
