10 Video Games That Broke The Rules

Thanks to the woeful Legend of Zelda games on the Philips CD-i, the doomed console has never had a great reputation. 

With that said, the system did have a few solid titles, including The Apprentice. The 2D side-scroller follows a young wizard called Marvin, who must perform a series of magical trials for his master. Due to the kid-friendly aesthetic, The Apprentice looks like the last game to be controversial.

But just before release, the creators decided to do something a bit cheeky... literally. During development, there were rumours surrounding Mortal Kombat, suggesting fighters could perform Nudalities, causing their opponents to take off their clothes. Although this rumour was debunked, it incentivised the developers behind The Apprentice to implement the idea into their own game.

If the player punches in a certain code just before the Game Over screen, it'll play a secret scene that depicts Marvin using magic to undress a woman. If that wasn't inappropriate enough, one of the secret scenes is of Marvin decapitating a monkey. (Just to remind you, this was a children's game.)

Even though The Apprentice is still remembered by fans, it's not for the gameplay.
