A new review for an old favourite of mine.
I myself became an instant addict as soon as I played it. Always wanting an hour or so more before I had to shut it off.
I absolutely fell in love with such memorable and unique characters! I cannot name another game I have played starring a robotic girl Marina who turns to write the wrongs of a shadowy dark version of herself.
The graphics of this game were pretty good i found. ( considering the time it was released in) What really drew me into this game was the colourful world you would venture in.
As for the game play I found it to be really difficult and repetitive, but none the less rewarded as I moved up level by level.I can't even count the number of times I have died as I came so far in one particular level, I would fall and the infamous "game over" scene. The number one flaw with this game was that when you would jump from those head to head thingys , is you had to press another button to grab onto them as well!
*sigh* would have been so much better if it could have been an automatic grab action onto objects.
This game is not for those of you controller smashing angry people, like my brother.
But all in all Mischief Makers is one of my top favourite games of all time, every time I play it you get all these wonderful feelings of the games of the past . Good times all, good times ;)
Definitely my #1 favourite 2d side scrolling game of my generation!
Overdue sequel anyone!?
