A GAME SO FAST AND FRANTIC IT COULD MAKE YOUR EYES BLEED.
Seeing the still screen shots and watching the videos really make a difference to your opinion of Geo Wars. The screen shots have the same appeal of Warioware in a sense that it can look bland and characterless because you don't get a feel of how the game might play. However once you see the game in action, flowing, the enemy swarming the screen, the colourful explosions of everything you shoot, and the panic on the face of the bloke who is struggling to stay alive for the short duration of the level, you soon get a feeling that Geo wars is special.
The aim of the game is to steer your spaceship (using the analogue stick) and shoot all enemys that attack you (using the Wii pointer) and to stay alive for as long as possible within a small boundry. Some levels will give you 3 lives and 3 bombs, some will give you 1 life and no bombs. Some levels will have mines to dodge and some will have moving blocks to avoid. The aim of every level is always the same .... score as higher score as possible and move on to the next.
The enemys are brilliantly designed and all have different ways of attacking you, some will hide until you turn your back, some will gang up together, some beeline for you and some act like snakes and can make life difficult by taking up large areas of the screen.
Everything about Geo Wars is brilliant. The game mechanics work really well and at no point will you wonder how you died or what happened which is amazing considering how frantic the game can get. The music is atmospheric and even though the levels are short you may be huming the tunes once you go to bed after playing this, and on that note you will also go to bed seeing Geo Wars because the graphics are mighty fine, very colourful and simply put beautiful.
I have only scratched the surface of this game. Please also consider that there is a online score board, a retro feel, and real pick up and play game elements as well as a game made for hardcore players.
THE SUMMARY
Please buy this game, it is not very often that you get a retro looking game, a hardcore game, and a game that is so easy to pick up and play all in one package.
