I liked it, but dang it got really hard in the later games. Did you ever play its sequel as shown in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adventure_%281980_video_game%29?

Nope. I did not even know it existed.

Whenever considering playing old Atari 2600/2nd gen console games, I
always hear the "Degenetron" commercials from Grand Theft Auto: Vice
City in my head.


     "Save the green dotts with your fantastic flying red
      square! Swing from green dot to green dot with your red
      square monkey! Smash the green dots deep inside the
      mysterious red square!"

     "Bring arcade realism to the living room, except without
      needing  quarters and without having a strange, sweaty
      man come by to empty the machine on Fridays."

Which usually discourages me from playing those games.

That's why I only play games with at least FOUR colour squares. ;-)
