Godzilla: Kaijuu Daikessen

Kaiju could do better

Genre: fighting - 1v1

Publisher: Toho

Year: 1994

System: SFC

Gameplay Score: 2

Gameplay Notes:

Slow, labored movement. Jumping is almost completely useless as you're vulnerable and can't connect with your hot. Moving toward the opponent is too slow for it to be worth it, so it's better to wait for them to come to you. I couldn't figure out any special moves. There's a power up meter but I couldn't figure out how it charges up or what it does. Not intuitive.

Level Design Score: 1

Level Design Notes:

Only the story mode and a 2P vs. I wish there was a practice mode or some way to figure out the moves.

Theme Score: 3

Theme Notes:

It's Godzilla. The graphics and music and menus all exude a somber, chilling atmosphere. Like a sad song.

Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Extremely dark graphics throughout. The sprites are large, although not as big as you would think. The backgrounds are picturesque but not terribly interesting.

Audio Score: 3

Audio Notes:

I enjoyed the music which is slow and somber. The sounds are decent, although quieter than I'd like.

Overall Score: 40
