Dr. Morbis | 2,088 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Nice score, Bert; I knew that was coming. With both you and PII on my heels, I knew I had to put up at least a half decent score (updated on page 1). It should be enough for the Top 5 finish that I need... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea you liked this game so much; it seems every game has that one guy who just can't get enough of it. I actually really like it too: it's by Hudson Soft (my favourite NES publisher) and has many elements from my favourite NES game, Adventure Island. Think about all the weapons (axes, fireballs, boomerangs), the enemies, the scantily clad main character who never stops moving, the hopping from island to island, etc. This game feels like they took Adventure Island and made it into a top-down shooter. Good stuff! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faxanadu and Robowarrior are examples I can think of at the moment, but they have a ton of good games... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only two issues are the lack of an ending, and the weird stage numbering; there are seven stages, but they pretend that the first three stages are four levels each, which is bullshit, but still a great game, if not a triffle short...

That stage numbering is pretty weird, but has no effect on game play When you beat this one for the first time and no ending that does feel a little sad, but there is no ending better than more game play at a greater difficulty level... also more than 1.2 or 1.3 mil. yields the Riki change to an old man on the title screen so there's a little Easter Egg there for the die-hards. ...Almost forgot, the one undeniable flaw this game has is the ability for Riki to get stuck on things like Walls and Rocks etc. Bad way to get shot up or scrolled off the screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
