Stone Protectors

Please stop Trolling


Genre: action - beat em up

Publisher: Kemko

Year: 1994

System: SNES


Gameplay Score: 1

Gameplay Notes:

The weirdest movement I've ever experienced. It's as if the character takes long swift strides - rather than gliding at a consistent pace you zoom and pause like you're riding along a series of waves. It's incredibly disorienting. The hit detection is so bad that the only reliable way to hit without being hit is to grab and then got an enemy. There are no throws so this only hours one foe at a time and doesn't take off much health so the game is much longer than in should be. Not fun.


Level Design Score: 2

Level Design Notes:

Honestly I don't know. I had no desire to play this being the first level. Standard corridor is all I saw.


Theme Score: 0

Theme Notes:

Is there anything more disturbing than those Troll dolls from the 80s-90s? I don't think so. Turning them into TMNT wannabes is just bizarre. Actually the character models look more like a cross between Troll dolls and the music motif of Jem and the Holograms. Uggh this is unspeakably horrible


Art Style Score: 1

Art Style Notes:

Yuck. Yuck. Yuck. The worst character models in a the genre. The artwork has an Amiga quality to it. Overuse of pastel colors makes this look like it was made to speak to prepubescent girls.


Audio Score: 1

Audio Notes:


Overall Score: 24

Review ID: 532
