- Review of Escape From The Planet Of The Robot Monsters
|
Information provided by: Steven Pick
Yes! At last, Escape comes to the SAM, and boy is it tasty! The
story revolves around a Lost In Space plot, about two hardened
soldiers, JAKE and DUKE. They are briefed, and must go to PLANET X,
where they must rescue the lovely Professor Sarah Bellum, or else the
evil Reptilians get to destroy the Earth!! So, you, or another Samster
(it's 2 player), must rampage round the 3D screens and destroy the
robots, and rescue a few billion fair madiens!
As the game progresses, you meet a giant End of Level Reptilian!
Yikes... Well, I must admit, the graphics on the SAM for this are
BRILLIANT! The music which plays throughout is also toe-tapping, and
the control method, though quirky to begin with gets a lot better with
practice! The game is full of neat animations as well - like if you
fall off a platform, you hang for a short wait until you leap up!
Though I was a little disappointed at the intro from the Spectrum, but
the rest - BRILLIANT! Get it NOW...
