Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Reviewed by Hans Rinderknecht
First of all, this game is one of the best, most humourous, and coolest
RPG's that I have ever played (even if Nintendo couldn't have done it
without Squaresoft.) It blends Mario graphics and characters with a
totally new plot and awesome RPG gaming (plus some cool new
characters!) All in all it is TOTALLY, AWESOMELY, WAY UP THERE
IN ULTIMATE COOLNESS!
Graphics 10 out of 10
I never thought that this sort of three-D graphics would ever make it to
the Super NES! You have gameplay in all six directions, and the animation
is flawless. Full color, lots of control, incredibly tight. The spells are
also incredibly colorful and awesome.
Music and Sound 10 out of 10
In this game, you can tell what level you are in by the music! You can
even tell if the town is friendly or bad. they also incorporated a lot of
sound effects, and included the old "jump" sound (boing, boing!) Lots of
new noises, too. Altogether cool and nifty!
Game Challenge 7 out of 10
Here is where the game lacks. this is truly a beginners RPG, even if
it is totally awesome and fun. The only super-hard part of the game is
beating Culex and Smithy. I have beaten it 3 times, and usually never
die in a battle. It is definitely not as hard as any of the Final Fantasy's...
Game Play-Fun 11 out of 10
Ultimately cool in fun, so many secrets to find and uncover make this
game a real fun gameplay. also, the old, well known characters give it
a touch of humor and make it even more fun seeing as it's a whole new story!
Frustration
Umm, not really. it's a pretty easy and un-frustrating game. The only
exception to this is the vines at nimbus land and the pit jumping in
the volcano. all the rest is pretty easy and not frustrating.
Replayability 9 out of 10
As I said, it's a pretty easy game, so you don't get a large since of
accomplishment by beating it like you do in Final Fantasy series. it
is really super cool, though, and you always find new secrets.
Game Value $45 out of $50
The original price was approximately 70 dollars, and nobody should have
paid that! I got mine for 30., but I would have bought it at 45.
Overall 11 out of 10
This is a really cool, must play game for RPG lovers, even if it is a bit
easy. YOU MUST PLAY THIS IF YOU LIKE MARIO, RPG's, OR ADVENTURE GAMES!!!
IT IS SUPER TIGHT AND AWESOME AND COOL, ETC.
