Review: Unknown Game 2323

PRESENTATION - 9/10

This game's bets feature, this easily has the most options and settings of any Klik game I've played yet, and the cinematics were very good as well. The only drawback is skipping the cinemas is a slow and painful process.

SOUND/MUSIC - 6/10

Not great, although the setup music was cool, the in-game music was average, and the sound effects were either cheesy home-made "ooh"s or "ahh"s, or from the libraries.

GRAPHICS - 5/10

Not too bad, you can tell the creator put alot of time into the game since all of the options have pictures with them, and neatly drawn characters. But the game is at low resolution and the characters are VERY small so there is no real detail in any of them.

GAMEPLAY - 4/10

This is the game's flaw, when I started up the game you get excited from all the cool features and detail put into the game, but when I actually started to play the game, I was disappointed.

First of all, the game runs slow even with the patch unless you turn down the graphics detail, but the game was poorly engineered so things like the options, how much money you have, etc. don't seem to stay the same. So after you die once, it might start the game again but with high detail so it's all slow again, so you would have to go back to the options and set it to low to play it. (And who knows if it wouldn't happen again.)

And the default platform movement makes it even worse, by getting stuck to the ceiling, climbing walls, etc. But the big problems are the sluggishness of the character and the sometimes multiple second delay between when you hit the fire button and when your character actually fires his gun.

LASTABILITY - 3/10

The game's flaws prevent it from being replayed, it's a shame because this game had a great menu and lots of potential.

--- OVERALL - 5/10 ---

This game is only worth playing if you're a game maker wanting some ideas for a solid menu, or if you want to borrow some ideas from the game's presentation. But if you're a gamer wanting to play a fun game, look elsewhere.

Note to creator: This game can be fixed however, work on the flaws stated above and you could have a GOTW winner here, this game has alot of polish, but not enough charm, and it's not enough fun either.
