The Pirates of Dark Water
Reviewed by Ty Massei
Graphics: 7 out of 10
Sound: 5 out of 10
Gameplay: 6.5 out of 10
Hardness factor: 4 out of 10
Overall: 6.5 out of 10
Graphics: Graphics are pretty good. Most things have a nice dark shade
to it and characters are extremely detailed. While the animation is not
the best, it's not bad enough to be annoying.
Sound: Music was pretty average, though sound effects were good. They
should have worked on the songs a bit to keep them interesting.
Gameplay: A basic beat 'em up. However, it is actually pretty fun in the
beginning. Levels vary only slightly so the game might get boring to some
people, but it's a vary good beat 'em up that reminds me of Final Fight,
just with better controls.
Hardness factor: This was a Saturday morning cartoon that wasn't even
on air for very long, so this game was targeted to a younger audience. It
definitely shows in how hard this game is. Besides bosses, the game
was just easy.
Overall: 6.5 out of 10. A nice beat 'em up for the SNES with nice graphics,
okay sound, and pretty good gameplay too. Levels can get boring at times,
but besides that it's at least interesting.
