Wrestle War
Mash dem buttonsGenre: fighting - wrestling
Publisher: Sega
Year: 1990
System: MD PAL
Gameplay Score: 2
Gameplay Notes:
Pure button masher. Camera swings around wildly. Objective is to get opponent's health bar to zero and then pin them which will guarantee a victory. Only two attacks - punch and kick. C to hold and then mash A and/or B to either throw to the ground or into the ropes. Decent movement in the slightly askew camera. Ok hit detection...for a wrestling game.
Level Design Score: 1
Level Design Notes:
What level design? This is an arcade game through and through. One fight after the next.
Theme Score: 4
Theme Notes:
Arcade feel. Quick intros and end of fight text. Not much to look at but I love the lack of pomp. Just jump in and fight.
Art Style Score: 4
Art Style Notes:
Huge sprites. Not much animation but I love the big beefy designs. Unfrotuatnely the right 1/3rd of the screen is used for an enormous HUD, making the playing area quite small.
Audio Score: 4
Audio Notes:
Solid, impactful sound effects. Ok music
Overall Score: 45
