Is Olympic Gold still worth playing in 2026?
An official Olympic sports game of the 1992 Barcelona Games, Olympic Gold chains varied events, running, swimming, archery or jumping, in a format inherited from the genre's tradition, where button mashing meets precise timing. The diversity of disciplines and multiplayer make it a good evening companion, even if some events age better than others and the whole lacks depth. For a retro arcade sports fan or someone nostalgic for 8 bit Olympic games, the title keeps a convivial fun and a nostalgic appeal.
