Result : 7 - Semi 3D platformer.
Pandemonium 2 has the original characters back to once again save the world. Strangely this mostly involves collecting small gold discs?! The plot is sparse, simple and best ignored. This has some non-standard 2D platforming action, flying, power-jumping, and lots of spinning in the air. However for all the 3D perspective and terrain, you are still limited to a 2D amount of movement - Left, Right and Jumping. Sound is reasonably good, but not outstanding in any department. Visually this was quite inovative in its day, now it looks better than average, but gets a little jerky, and has popup occouring more often than acceptable. The psychodalic landscapes and bizzare sense of humor running thru some bits of this game are very enjoyable. But overall it is a little too easy, and unrewarding. |
