Bob is a fun game with a huge variety, a fun classic side scroller. You are a robot-like bug and control an arsenal of weapons with your mechanical arms on a quest to get to your girlfriend. The point of the game is to overcome obstacles, desintegrate enemies and basically get from point A to point B. Some levels include bosses and the diverse genres of each level keeps you interested from level to level. Now, there are two kinds of levels. One is a basic scrolling game that is used throughout most of the game. However, every 8 levels or so you control bob's car and go through a (sometimes annoying) drive level. In conclusion, bob is a little side scroller that doesn't live up to the classics like Contra, however it should still keep you thrilled throughout the course of the game.
