Q*bert 3 for SNES
Review #442
Q*bert 3
Whoopie cushion with eyeballs and a potty mouth
Gameplay
Objective is to touch all tiles in a pyramid without getting touched by baddies.
Punishing isometric controls - hit the wrong direction and you jump off the cliff.
Once you jump you're committed and you have to continuously move. Reminds me of Crypt of the NecroDancer.
I cannot train my brain to go the right way.
Incredibly difficult since enemies swarm and cannot be killed. Like playing tag against 5 other people simultaneously.
Hit boxes are enormous so you can't be anywhere near enemies. Not just about occupying the same space.
Level Design
What level design? No new mechanics are ever introduced so there's nothing new or different about levels. The boxes just get rearranged but there's nothing interesting.
Theme
Q*Bert is admittedly a cute character and he has personality as evidenced by his censored vulgarity after dying.
Art Style
Like Ms. Pac-Man this is an arcade remaster done right. The backgrounds are busy and obnoxious but thankfully can be turned off.
Audio
Meh
