Space Shuttle Project
Reviewed by Daniel French
Space Shuttle Project is a very fun, yet difficult game. Made in 1991, The games
graphics and detail are very exceptional for the time when it was made. The
designers of this game were very accurate in there depiction of an actual space
shuttle mission, with some small exceptions, for example, at the beginning of
every mission, you must fuel up the shuttle, while picking up your crew members
one at a time before the timer runs out. The games extensive name and password
system in which the password is always different and random, makes it very
difficult to cheat on this game. For this reason This game is one of my most
prized games. The takeoff and reentry graphics are excellent.
Graphics 7 out of 10
The graphics in this game, though a little cartoonist, are accurate in proportion
and shape. The most acceptional pictures are that of the mir, your shuttle when
it is in space, and the asteroids. Between some levels you are congratulated by
important figures such as Michale Gorbachev and a very bad drawing of President
George Bush and Vice president Daniel Quayle.
Music and Sound 9 out of 10
The music soundtrack has a total of three very good songs on it. regardless of the
small sound track, the game and sound track are great!
Game Challenge 10 out of 10
The games Difficulty is one of its greatest features, each mission gets progressively
tougher with more tasks to preform in each mission. the only really dumb part of the
game is while you are boarding your crew in each mission, you have to dodge the
oxygen pump or you lose precious time, beyond that, the game is great.
Game Play-Fun 8 out of 10
The games fun comes from the feeling of success you get from completing each
mission. You should also enjoy the games accuracy and difficulty, if not, than this
game is not for you.
Frustration
The game is only frustrating if you don't understand the puzzles in it, the puzzles
are simple to understand if you have a high sense of logic.
Replayability 8 out of 10
The game can be played over and over, you can also visit already completed levels
to replay them and do better than before.
Game Value 10 out of 10
This game is worth every penny you pay for it, and then some, if you like a very
challenging, yet fun game, with plenty of scientific and historical accuracies.
Overall 9 out of 10
In conclusion, I say that if you like a very challenging and fun game, go out and buy
a copy of Space Shuttle Project ASAP.
