Clay Fighter for Genesis


Image: MobyGames

Clay Fighter

If Tim Burton had directed Mortal Kombat


Genre: fighting - 1v1

Publisher: Interplay

Year: 1994

System: Genesis


Gameplay Score: 1

Gameplay Notes:

Much slower than the SNES version. Controls are laggy here. Standard SF2 controls Couldn't figure out any special moves. At least none worth using. So I just would up using standard heavy kick repeatedly. Combat didn't seem deep. Slowdown galore Fatalities like MK but not sure how to do them


Level Design Score: 2

Level Design Notes:

No mini games to break up the procession of matches Very boring stages


Theme Score: 0

Theme Notes:

Never have I ever wanted to play a fighting game as a fat Elvis impersonator. Or a clown. Or a far opera lady for that matter. Just a preposterously stupid concept.


Art Style Score: 1

Art Style Notes:

Prerendered graphics are fairly impressive but wow is this some of the ugliest artwork I've ever seen. Even worse than the SNES version.


Audio Score: 2

Audio Notes:

The music, like the rest of the game, doesn't speak to me in any way. The sound quality is quite good but again, it's a bunch of music and sound effects that I despise. The sounds of hitting and kicking are good so I'll give it props for that as well. Also, very high quality voice samples. On the Genesis!


Overall Score: 26

Review ID: 831
