A couple of times when I've played Dynasty Warriors with my girlfriend (who has ADHD diagnosis), I noticed that she would be literally running in circles having absolutely no idea where she was. She's not a gamer and controlling the camera can be finnicky for someone who isn't used to dual analogs, so there's that, but she also has trouble reading the minimap.
Yesterday I've had her play Crash Bandicoot 3 and she got "lost" in stage 2, the first underwater level. At the first sphere with electricity thingy, she thought she was supposed to keep going right, she didn't notice the pipe opening leading down.
Is "getting lost" like that common for people with ADHD?
She's also pretty lousy at Bomberman games, but she enjoys playing them.
I'd say that's more a symptom of gaming inexperience than ADHD. Especially older games like the ones you mentioned don't hold the player's hand as much as modern ones and I'm sure the retro art style takes some getting used to.
I have ADHD but I usually don't have any trouble navigating videogames. But I've been playing since my childhood.
