Tiger-Heli

Yikes!

User Rating: 1.3 | Tiger-Heli NES

By SnesNinja | Review Date: December 5, 2006

Tiger-Heli is one of the worst shoot em up type games ever made. For any system including Atari. Basically what it is is a vertical scrolling shooter. The only difference is that you are a helicopter. Your arsenal for the most part is four missiles as well as a scatter shot of bombs which has to be recharged. So it is very basic and powerups for the gun are few and far between.

Where this game lacks the most besides gameplay is graphics. Everything looks HORRIBLE. The water is basically blue squares with random white squiggle lines. Buildings and areas totally lack effort. When things explode or enemies are shot they are replaced by what seems to be some sort of candy wrapper, but of course it is just a sorry attempt at a wreckage.

The soundtrack is annoying at best and honestly best left turned off.

The game moves a long at a very slow pace, and its pretty much the same thing over and over. It has no energy.

Overall I think this game is not even worth displaying let alone playing.
