Yo, Bro

Berenstein Bears ate my Neighbors


Genre: adventure - overhead

Publisher: NEC

Year: 1991

System: TurboGrafx-16


Gameplay Score: 1

Gameplay Notes:

Plays just like Zombies ate my Neighbors. The objective is to kill all the monsters while rescuing innocents. However the controls are unbearable. The, see what I did there? Imagine if 720° we're a twin stick shooter. Yeah, the incredible momentum based movement doesn't work in a shooter, especially when enemies are bullet sponges.


Level Design Score: 3

Level Design Notes:

Each area is a big square town full of people and enemies. A handy arrow directs you too the nearest target.


Theme Score: 1

Theme Notes:

Your character says something 90s each time you pick up an item or kill an enemy. It's bodacious and radical and has not aged well. Plus, why are you a bear? You look like Brother Bear from the Berenstein Bears.


Art Style Score: 1

Art Style Notes:

Simple and not very attractive.


Audio Score: 4

Audio Notes:

Beach Boys songs. Nothing but Beach Boy songs. I like Beach Boy songs.


Overall Score: 36

Review ID: 1519
