Beauty & The Beast for SNES


Image: MobyGames

Beauty & The Beast

I want much more than this provincial life


Genre: action - punch n kick

Publisher: Hudson Soft

Year: 1994

System: SNES


Gameplay Score: 1

Gameplay Notes:

Laggy controls. Short reach on your one and only attack. Attacking while jumping cancels your momentum. Very strange mechanic. Enemies jump out for cheap hits constantly. You have to inch forward. Poor hit detection. Enemies respawn when they leave the screen like an NES game.


Level Design Score: 1

Level Design Notes:

The levels themselves aren't complex or bad but again the enemy placement and movement patterns are unbelievably cheap. Combine that with 40% draw distance and the result is very low enjoyment on any level.


Theme Score: 1

Theme Notes:

This film would make a great game! - Said no one ever


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Nice sprites but poor animation. Backgrounds are nice but are very dark and unappealing.


Audio Score: 2

Audio Notes:

The music is good but sounds are awful


Overall Score: 26

Review ID: 55
