Game & Watch Gallery

"Don't watch this game, buy it!"

Ahhh. Game and Watch. That brings me back to before I was even born. Even so, I got this game in the Gameboy era, and I loved it. Here is a small, but down to earth review.

Graphics: 7/10
I would say no, but these are the classics! The remodeled versions of the games are mediocre, but the classic modes bring you back. Not much more to say about the graphics though.

Controls: 10/10
I found the controls on this game very easy to use! Weather your droppin' oil, or helping some toads across the bridge, its all easy to use.

Sound: 9/10
I'm gonna skip the classic modes of the game completely, because those are just bleeps and bloops. The remodeled modes bring some catchy tunes. It speeds up when you go onto 100, 200, ect. points, which really builds the tension.

Gameplay: 10/10
Dodge the octopus? Drop the oil? The gameplay is downright crazy, but it is a lot of fun. Every time you get 1000 points in one of the games, you unlock a ultra hard mode, which is very fun to do if your bored. Also, every time you get 500 or 1000 points, you unlock a star in "Watch Mode". There, you can get little tidbits of history from all the Game and Watch games.

Replay Value: 10/10
Get the high score! Get higher! Get even higher! Thats basically the replay value, and any other way would be boring. You kind of have your own arcade here, in terms of getting the highest score! Also, unlocking all of the stars in the Watch mode can take awhile, you you will probably get a good 5-10 hours on this, depending if you are really good or really bad. If your wondering. I was really bad.

Fun Factor: 10/10
Your GONNA have fun. If you don't, Mr. Game and Watch will have to put the smack-down on you.

Conclusion: 10/10
Great game. No flaws. Buy today. Don't rent. Short sentences rule.
