Giana Sisters originally released on Commodore 64, and an updated re-release for Xbox1.

-The potions are power ups, there are three different kinds (range, power, speed). The one that “made you sick” is actually a screen-clearing super power.
-There is a famous game with sisters, “The great Giana sisters”, it’s a Super Mario Bros knockoff for the C64 but it’s actually really good in its own way.

Reminds me of my favorite NES puzzler: Kickle Cubicle.

Snow Bros. was an arcade game in the wake of Bubble Bobble.
The Great Giana Sisters was a spoof of Super Mario Bros. on Commodore 64 and Amiga.
Hey while we’re on the subject, go play Turrican on Amiga or C64. Only you’ll need a joystick where autofire and regular fire are two separate buttons.

Yep the Giana Sisters, which I bought on Wiiu, the remake. Interesting concept, but full of problems. They never bothered patching the bugs, what a bunch of morons.

There’s a sister game, actually. It’s “The Great Giana Sisters” which is a clear spin-off of “Super Mario Bros” (Giana should have been “Gianna”, an actual Italian name).
