Donald Duck: Goin' Quackers

"Puts up a bit o' nostalgia"

Have you been reminiscent of the old days lately? Craving a bit more bonding with your copy of Sonic the Hedgehog 3? Then this game is yours. Donald Duck Goin' Quackers is like the good ol' days with games like Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Aladdin, those blasted Mickey mouse games, etc. And to boot it has a bit of contemporary Crash Bandicoot style action. The game's like this. There's five worlds. Each world has five levels, including the final boss level. Each level is either a side scroller or a Crash Bandicoot like 3-D run through. The game is perfect for the kids or even your self, if you're not much for challenging and tedious games. The gameplay gets a little ominous at times, but so do all of the great scrollers. Give and take, give and take. So you're goin' through, collect as many power ups, jump on baddies, get to the end. The story isn't that good, but sufficient. You are out to rescue daisy from the bad guy. Donald's 3 nephews are also out to help you, giving you another special move every other level. The specials come in handy when you just feel like plowing through the enemies that stand in your way of the goal. The graphics are fair, nothing blocky, there actually fairly good, considering that this wasn't a first party title or something. Great for the kiddies, good for the adults. A little something something for everyone.
