Riot Zone
Streets of Rage 1.5Genre: action - beat em up
Publisher: TTI
Year: 1993
System: TG-16 CD
Gameplay Score: 3
Gameplay Notes:
Quite possibly the most blatant clone ever. This is Streets of Rage in ever way. Only two fighters to choose (no female) and a limited moveset. Still, it plays perfectly fine and I have no big complaints. Good hit detection and fair difficulty levels. Actually, one complaint is the lack of any weapons. No run, so the slow speed gets old.
Level Design Score: 4
Level Design Notes:
Very long stages. All the obligatory environments are here, including sewers and elevators. No destructible boxes and whatnot, however.
Theme Score: 4
Theme Notes:
Again, a blatant Streets of Rage clone.
Art Style Score: 4
Art Style Notes:
Nice pixel art. The backgrounds are varied but lack detail. Still, this looks as good as the games it's apeing.
Audio Score: 3
Audio Notes:
The music tries to be cool but missed the mark. The sound effects leave a lot to be desired, especially the ridiculous grunt you make when jump kicking or what the girls die. The sounds feel like they were pulled from Wonder Boy.
Overall Score: 68
