2 / 5

Gameplay

Slow pace. Very slow movement and no dash.
Has light RPG elements like RCR on NES with exp and levels and stats. Also you can equip items although I can't figure out how to acquire anything.
Moveset is limited with a punch and jump-kick that never lands.
Poor hit detection.
The best strategy is to pick up weapons and throw them as projectiles.
Overall ambitious but poor gameplay.

2 / 5

Level Design

I have no idea where to go, what to do, or what I'm trying to accomplish. I'm trapped in a hotel and have no way to even regain health. So confused. Maybe a walkthrough would help.

1 / 5

Theme

No idea what is happening. Who are these people? Am I part of a gang? Why are we all in white jump suits? I feel like I've started watching an anime on episode 127.
So. Much. Talking.

2 / 5

Art Style

Ugly sprites. Every character looks like an average Joe walking around in their pajamas.
Very unappealing.
The background has a pseudo 3D effect that adds scaling on the floor. It looks rather impressive at first but becomes distracting forever after. The backgrounds are bland. It's just an ugly hotel using layers of brown and yellow.

1 / 5

Audio

The music is straight out of a casino game. Awful stuff

Hey gamers. I first published this blog in July 2024. That initial release included my thoughts about every game that was released in North America during the 16-bit era.  At the time I was underway with the second, and final, phase of this project - to play and review every 16-bit title playable by an English speaker, regardless of region. As of right now, that goal has been reached. What lies before you is a heap of reviews for every game I could play on the following consoles: Super Nintendo/Super Famicom (1204 total) North America (716) Japan (450) Europe/PAL (38)  Sega Genesis/Mega Drive (849) North America (704) Japan (94) Europe/PAL (51) Sega CD/Mega Drive CD (158) North America (141) Japan (12) Europe/PAL (5) TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine (255) North America (95) Japan (160) TurboGrafx-16 CD/PC Engine CD (163) North America (44) Japan (119) ...

Super Hydlide for Genesis

Review #4565 Super Hydlide Easily the worst game of the 16 bit era Genesis 1990 Seismic Adventure Adventure › Overhead X 2 / 100 You've been warned Screenshot used for review/reference purposes. 0 / 5 Gameplay Zelda clone... in theory. Includes an unbelievably annoying weight system, limiting both what you can carry and what your character can use as a weapon. If you’re overloaded, you are unable to move. After buying a few things at the weapons shop I thought the game was broken. I had to Google it and read about this weight mechanic. So stupid. It makes the game nigh unplayable. Even with a minimal inventory of a knife, a helm, and two food rations I could barely walk. The game has a clock and calendar and it took me 12 game hours to walk from the Shop to the exit to attempt combat. By that...

Chrono Trigger for SNES

Review #109 Chrono Trigger Only by mastering time itself do you stand a chance against Lavos. SNES 1995 Square RPG RPG › Japanese A 100 / 100 Classic Screenshot used for review/reference purposes. 5 / 5 Gameplay Battle system is special. There's an optional Active Battle System and an innovative Single and Team techniques system. No grinding necessary. An assortment of sidequests and minigames like the actions you take at the Millennial Fair which influence how the trial plays out. One thing that I greatly appreciate is that you are never alone in a one-character party. You are joined by 3 other playable characters within the first hour of play. Being able to switch your party members on the fly is also a welcome quality of life feature. No random battles. The Game+ feature! What an awes...
