Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters
Reviewed by Ty Massei
Graphics: 7 out of 10
Sound: 7 out of 10
Gameplay: 7.5 out of 10
Hardness factor: 6 out of 10
Overall: 7 out of 10
Graphics: The graphics are a lot like the NES, or at least a very good try.
Enemies are original and kind of weird, and the Animation is about as
good as you can get for a regular gameboy game.
Sound: The songs and sound effects are almost just as good as the
original and are only modified a bit so that they can fit the gameboy. It's
pretty good and I enjoyed listening to it.
Gameplay: A 'sequel' to one of the best sidescrollers for the NES. It's
almost exactly like it; except for some things at the end, and that the
screen scrolls around instead of it just being one big screen that scrolls
left and right. It's pretty basic, but that's what makes it fun. The dynamics
of the game are just great.
Hardness factor: The game isn't too hard, except for maybe the last boss.
It is easy to get lost in the ruins though.
Overall: 7 out of 10. A very fun game. If you've played the first, or even
if you just have a gameboy and don't mind old games, definitely get this game.
