Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure made a potentially disastrous school presentation into an excuse to kidnap historical figures, introduce Napoleon to a water park, and put the future of civilization in the hands of two teenagers who desperately needed tutoring. Somehow, they were the right men for the job.
That friendship carried the pair through the afterlife and a long-awaited third movie , with Reeves and Alex Winter making their relentless enthusiasm difficult to resist.

You belong in the decade where how it looked became as important as how it sounded, and the people who understood that immediately became enormous. MTV rewrote the job description overnight and you would have read the memo first.
You belong in the decade that reacted against everything the previous one stood for. The Nineties decided that polish was suspicious and that the only thing worth being was real, whatever that turned out to cost.
The game returns to the original movie’s history-report predicament, sending Bill S. Preston, Esq. and Ted “Theodore” Logan through 15 side-scrolling levels . Players will encounter Billy the Kid, Socrates, Napoleon, Beethoven, and Genghis Khan , challenging the historical guests in individual minigames to secure their help.
