Hunt for Red October

In the Hunt for some ammo


Genre: shooter - horizontal

Publisher: Hi-Tech Exp

Year: 1993

System: SNES


Gameplay Score: 2

Gameplay Notes:

Makes me want to play In the Hunt. Limited ammo is a pain. Four kinds of attack - forward, up, arc downward, arc upward. Hard to hit enemies as they move randomly and your shots are so tiny and unpredictable. Major momentum issues make movement an absolute chore. The super scope 6 sections are novel but not fun. Super slow cursor


Level Design Score: 1

Level Design Notes:

Really weird levels that aside from the first one (defect from the USSR) don't match up with the book or movie. Level 2 has you stopping illegal merchants and level 3 is an escort mission for a cruise ship. Uhh, ok


Theme Score: 1

Theme Notes:

Cool book. Cool movie. The intro matches the movie but nothing else is high presentation value.


Art Style Score: 1

Art Style Notes:

Simple, boring, ugly graphics.


Audio Score: 3

Audio Notes:

Flight of the valkyries plays repeatedly. Cool song


Overall Score: 34

Review ID: 225
