Yolanda, daughter of Hercules and princess too, has aroused the wrath of Hera, goddess of death. Thus, the latter has cast a spell that condemns all men Yolanda fells in love with to a violent end. To lift the curse, she must perform the 12 labours once accomplished by her father. . . .

Ah, youngsters do not realize how spoiled they are with today's games.
No more limited lives for example. You can die and start over ŕ volonté. You can save wherever and whenever you want, and it is increasingly rare to see a time limit.
Additionally, even "hard" modes in modern games are laughable compared with games of yore with which you hit a brick wall for days and months and years. . . .

Then, imagine a game of old created for "hardcore gamers". . . . It was the selling point of Yolanda: "the fastest and most difficult platform game ever". The best way to get the idea is to play it.

This title doesn't even belong in the frustrating-torture-games category, it is more of a joke! The funny thing is that people actually paid for it.
To make fun of us, the developers have even seen fit to offer three levels of difficulty. . . .

A game to see, once, for culture' sake!
