Twinsen's Odyssey

"Annoying, Too long, but great graphics"

Most people quit less than an hour after they start this game, and for good reason. The main character is annoying, movement is hard, and there's few real levels.

Graphics: The game's strongpoint! Very detailed inside and out. Everything about the look of this game is wonderful. The towns look almost real, even the sewer looks real. I give this a 10

Characters: Ugh, the hero and his girlfriend are terribly annoying. Their romance, unlike many RPGs, gets in the way. There is NO character development at all. I give this a 3.

Story: Another strong point, but WAY too long! I kept wishing it would just end!! I guess that's because I was annoyed with some characters. I like the bad guys in this game much more than the good guys. I'm talking about the aliens and they only appear more later. There's really no twists in this story, you know all along that the aliens are bad! I give this a 4.

Levels and Towns: I like battling my way through levels and towns, the only problem is figuring them out!! At least they are definately a challenge. I give this a 7.

Replayability: Well, seeing as I've only played through it once, I give this a 1.

Overall I gave it a 4 because the bad outweighs the good!
