Uniracers

"A great orginal idea"

This game blew me away. I'd never seen anything like this, and still haven't. Sadly, they never did make a sequel to this game, other then that dumbass iggy race thing. Flyling heads eh?

Personally, I think the unicycles looked better without people. Picturing them with people would be wierd.

Graphics 8/10 Pretty good for a SNES, didn't think the superfamicon would produce such smoothness. They did a nice job in making things look 3d, although sometimes they turned out looking like clay. Is that how they were supposed to look?

Music 10/10 Real comptitive music in the background to make you wanna win so badly, so very badly. Although it doesn't have many soundtracks, the levels get longer and longer, so you get to here the song longer then before.

SFX 3/10 They really could have tried adding some more sfx's.. I only noticed like 3 or 4 different sounds in the entire game. They didn't seem to care about the SFX as they did the music. They had music for everything, it was almost as if the SFX's were little midis themselves.

Gameplay Value 10/10 Hooked on Uni racer worked for me! Damn this game will make you sit hours at a time trying to pull off the twister city, z pipe, roundhouse combo. Personally, I think its impossable. Inventing new moves to rack up higher then your friends can sometimes make it too easy ( I know a 100 pts move)

Replay Value 5/10 Once its done its done..No higher difficulties or nothin..Its over dude. Unless you got alot of different friends to vs..Or if you really, really, really want to land a nice move to defeat everybody. But the games pretty long, and the comp will beat you so many times, you might want to play again, to improve your uni cycling abilities.

Head on Head 10/10 This was a good idea..You can race your opponet and play him in stunts. Heres a tip: Doing a trick makes you move faster, but wiping out decreases your speed, try to do alot of small tricks, you'll pull behind in the beg jumping, but will zoom past him anyway

Buy or Rent. Buy if you like it the first time. Rent if you didn't, you don't wanna waste your money just to have gotton it because of its reviews.

Well if you do buy it, be prepared to lose like 50 thousand times by the comp, espically if its your first time playin. but don't worry, hes easy on earlier lvls..like the first one
