Graphics: 5 out of 10
Sound: 6.5 out of 10
Gameplay: 4 out of 10
Hardness factor: 6 out of 10
Overall: 4.5 out of 10
Graphics: The graphics in this game are very normal for a NES game.
There isn't really a lot of detail, but you know what characters are
supposed to be, and there's a very bland but appropriate color scheme.
As for originality, this game doesn't have tons.
Sound: The sound is the best part of this game. This is the only NES game
I know of that actually has sound bits during the cutscenes, even if the
music pauses for a second. The songs aren't really original, but they are
very appropriate to the level.
Gameplay: This game is an interesting overhead platformer, sort of like
The Legend of Zelda. Anyway, you play as Davy whom, ironically, just
has a bunch of daydreams about things that happened during the day.
You run around a different themed level and must find the exit then beat
a boss. Along the way, you must beat different themed enemies, like trolls
and knights on the first medieval level. However, I didn't really like this
game. The controls were too one-dimensional and this game was definitely
targeted towards a younger audience.
Hardness factor: This game was a little bit harder than most games targeted
towards littler kids. Most of that, however, was due to the fact that the
controls are very hard to get used to.
Overall: 4.5 out of 10. This game was okay, but it just wasn't the type of
game that you can get into easily. I'd recommend this for a child, but not
anyone older than five.
