Graphics: This game has so-so graphics. The problem with reviewing
games some games, like this one, is that there aren't a lot of graphics
in the game. However, what is there is very basic, but not very blocky.
Sound: The music in this game is pretty bad. As for sound effects, there
really aren't a lot of them.
Gameplay: I really didn't like this game. You play as a snake, and are
supposed to block or kill another snake in. The movements of your character
are horrible because the only way to move in a direction is to press the A
button. First, you go up, then when you press A you go right, then A again
to go down, and so on. It's really dumb. Anyway, you can also make small circles
and collect powerups to increase your speed, how long you are, and also
sometimes create a barrier somewhere on the field. It's very boring and as
you can imagine, the controls are horrible.
Hardness factor: This game is pretty hard. Sometimes you'll think you're
about to go right, only to go left and block yourself in. It gets frustrating
and really isn't worth it.
Overall: 2 out of 10. A bad game, but I can imagine that some people might
like it. If they had changed the controls, this game would have gotten a
much higher rating.
