Super Star Soldier
Good, but not as good as the sequelGenre: shooter - vertical
Publisher: NEC
Year: 1991
System: TurboGrafx-16
Gameplay Score: 4
Gameplay Notes:
Far more difficult than its sequel Soldier Blade. And more often than not it's because you have to memorize the movement of an enemy that moves too quickly for you to avoid it. There are four weapons (one useless one) and three speed levels instead of two in the sequel. This one seems overstuffed compared to the lean and streamlined sequel. Still very good.
Level Design Score: 3
Level Design Notes:
Bosses are a bit unfair. Enemy movement is too fast and they come in huge waves making it nearly impossible to survive when not fully powered up.
Theme Score: 3
Theme Notes:
Generic sci-fi shooter with no story
Art Style Score: 4
Art Style Notes:
Eye popping backgrounds. So well drawn! Sprites are less impressive but still very good. Some stories even scale! Overall very good.
Audio Score: 4
Audio Notes:
Lovely music and sound effects
Overall Score: 74
