Super F1 Circus 2

The bird's eye view helps


Genre: racing - simulation

Publisher: Nichibutsu

Year: 1993

System: SFC


Gameplay Score: 3

Gameplay Notes:

Very nice. It reminds me of F1 ROC for the SNES. The high camera angle makes this feel quite a bit better than most F1 games. You can see turns coming up and despite the speed it's easy to make every turn. That's unusual for these games. You also don't have to tap-tap-tap to get around. I rarely felt I needed to over-correct.


Level Design Score: 3

Level Design Notes:

All the modes, although they're hidden behind menu after menu after menu. It's all in English though, so eventually you'll be able to start racing.


Theme Score: 3

Theme Notes:

All the licenses and whatnot.


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Great sense of speed. Small sprites but whatever. Love the camera placement and the small but helpful HUD.


Audio Score: 3

Audio Notes:

Soft, nice music. The engine noise is helpful and not shrill. Oh and you have full control over turning off the music and/or the sound. I wish every racing game has this option.


Overall Score: 60

Review ID: 1864
