Punisher


Genre: action - beat em up

Publisher: Capcom

Year: 1995

System: Genesis


Gameplay Score: 4

Gameplay Notes:

Responsive controls. Typical Capcom awesomeness. Punch, kick, and jump kick work well with excellent hit detection. Plentiful health drops on easy. Grabs and throw work as expected. Fast movement Cool sequence where you pull out a handgun and blast the baddies. So satisfying


Level Design Score: 4

All levels are broken up into multiple short segments. Lots of different types of enemy waves keeps things fresh.

Theme Notes:

It's the Punisher! Story is told during gameplay. Love the style


Art Style Score: 2

Art Style Notes:

Sprites look fine but could use more animation. Backgrounds look awful. They're grainy, dark, and drab. Might look better if I wasn't already familiar with the arcade game.


Audio Score: 4

Nice music and thumping sound effects.


Overall Score: 77

Review ID: 1177
