Graphics: The graphics in this game are pretty good. While they are a
little blurry, there's a lot of detail and a lot of things look pretty
lifelike. There are a lot of original characters and concepts in this game,
which really ends up adding a lot to it.
Sound: I really loved the music in this game. Not only were most the songs
good, but there was something else about the music in this game. Each
character you play has a different song when you are in a level. So if
you're sick of the music, you can just switch to a different character.
Sound effects were also really cool in this game.
Gameplay: A really cool sidescroller. I really enjoyed playing this game
as it was fun and complex but the main idea was pretty simple. At the
beginning of this game you go around one of four levels in order to get
a new character. There are four characters in all, each with their own
special abilities. Samson can shoot fast, jump pretty high, and cling to
walls. The Dragon can float and shoot out fireballs when you hold down
his attack. The Rockguy can hit up. Finally, The Rat lays down bombs and
can crawl into small places. After you play a level as each one, there's a
short scene where Samson has to beat The Dragon, and then you get to
play more levels. In the levels, you can select any character you want
at any time, which is cool since there are life powerups you may want
to give your different characters or you may need to use a character
quickly in a battle. This game was very cool. There were quite a few
original enemies in the game, plus the controls were very nice.
Hardness factor: This game was just perfect in how hard it should
have been. While there are some pretty hard parts in the game, most
of it is pretty easy and enjoyable.
Overall: 7 out of 10. Every once in a while (only a few times actually)
I'll come across an old game that should have been popular since it's
very good. This is once of them. I highly recommend you go out and get
this game; you won't be disappointed.
