WACKO
This is one of those odd little games
that plays so much better with a V-Stick. Much like Robotron,
you can move and shoot in different directions. While this game
is easier to play than Robotron when you only have one joystick,
it is still harder.
The game revolves around an alien who has to fly around in his
kroozer and zap creatures. There are all kinds of creatures and
by zapping two of the same creature in consecutive shots, you
will eliminate them. But if you shoot one type of creature and
then another, you won't do anything (at least on the early
levels). You will know when you hit a creature as it will shake
uncontrollably. But on later levels if you shoot one creature
and than another type, you will blend the two creatures into a
real monstrosity. While this looks neat, it makes for some real
headaches.
To make your life even tougher, on the higher levels the
monsters turn into itty bitty creatures. These creatures cannot
be killed until all the big monsters are zapped and then you can
go on a hunt. But, instead of having to chase these pint sized
terrors down, they will come after you. Smaller size does not
mean smaller problems as they are quite fast and vicious.
The graphics are very large and colorful with a wide assortment
of monster. You little alien is kinda cute and his ship is small
and sleek. The game is an addictive little romp that will keep
you busy from time to time.
This is just a review of the arcade machine.
