Another Japanese hucard game. This one I got with
'KungFu' and another (which I have yet to work out what it is called -
yes I have (summer 98) - it's called 'Energy', and I've done a small review)
- I paid £5 (UK) for all 3 of them. Not too bad, even though they
are loose.
War of the Dead is an overhead adventure game, much like a (very) early 'Final Fantasy' or such like. I have no idea of the plot - since I cannot read Japanese (it's probably to do with some near apocalyptic future...). You wander around a very bland 2d map, occasionally finding desolate buildings which you can enter and 'talk' to the inhabitants (in Japanese, of course). Sometimes, both in the map area, and in buildings, the screen will fade, and you will be faced with a basic side-scrolling platform level in which you, as the heroine, must destroy all of the nasties. You have an inventory of items, which you can access in the overhead
areas. A word of advice, choose the pistol as your weapon before moving
off anywhere; the knife is hard to use, but beware - you can run out of
bullets if you are trigger happy.
There is no TG mailing list review for this game. |
