Plot: A group of reploids known as the Repliforce, led by
Colonel and the huge General, desires independence from the
humans that made them, although unlike the Mavericks, they
do not wish to harm humans. Even so, a war breaks out
between the Repliforce and the Maverick Hunters, who have
pegged the force as Mavericks. And laughing as he watches it
all from behind the scenes is, to quote Split Mushroom: "Take a
wild guess."
Graphics: 7/20
If this game was on the Nintendo, Sega or made 4 years ago
the graphics would be sweet, but it's on the PC and the
graphics are terrible. The game was made with one resolution:
320x240. You can change modes up 800x600, but it just reduces
the screen size. Unfortunately they have ruined a possibly good
game by using outdated graphics.
Sound: 10/15
The sound effects are average for any platform type game.
There is some speech and the sound effects, but nothing
outstanding. The sound effects just squeak by.
Gameplay: 20/25
This game was actually pretty fun to play. The challenge of
each level was different. The big bosses required a different
strategy to kill, unlike some games where once you figure out
the first one all the rest are the same. With my lack of skill in
this area I spent quite a few lives trying to discover each boss's
weakness and pattern so that I could avoid being killed.
Fun Factor: 10/20
After playing through the first few levels I got bored with the
game, but I think if the graphics were better I might have been
interested enough to move a bit further. Platform shooters have
been done to death and this one has nothing new to offer.
Packaging: 4/5
Multiplayer Play: 0/5
No multiplayer: I am not sure if any company will ever make a
multiplayer platform shooter, but if they did it might be a big
hit. (hint-hint)
Overall Impression: 5/10
This game was thrown together. If more time had been spent
updating the graphics and sound, it might have been worth the
time, but as it stands this game is a flop. Only those of you
who live to play platform games should bother with this one.
One of the best things this game has going for is its small size.
