The Great Battle III
An SD in King Arthur's CourtGenre: action - beat em up
Publisher: Banpresto
Year: 1993
System: SFC
Gameplay Score: 2
Gameplay Notes:
Major improvement over GB 2, but still not good. Enemies are too aggressive and hit like a truck. Bad hit detection and short reach are slightly better but still not good. Switch from 4 players on the fly but they share a health bar and play the exact same so it's purely cosmetic. I wish there was more nuance to the combat.
Level Design Score: 3
Level Design Notes:
Has a D&D feel to it. Designed like King of the Dragons or Knights of the Round.
Theme Score: 4
Theme Notes:
Time traveling SD guys in the medieval past. Love it.
Art Style Score: 2
Art Style Notes:
Bigger sprites. Well animated. Lots of animation in the background. 2 points off because half the screen is filled with a black bar on bottom and a huge HUD on top which constantly animated "PRESS START" for player 2.
Audio Score: 4
Audio Notes:
Great soundtrack
Overall Score: 51
