Lady Sia

"Buy this game!"

When I first saw a preview of this game I HAD TO HAVE IT! I was dazzled at the screen shots and already lost patience to buy this game. There are some glitches in the game, and just so you know, if you have trouble at the Wind boss, like if you keep tapping ''A'' and nothing happens, just reset.

Game play 80%
The control is pretty easy. With the Sword you have these combos which are pretty easy and can save you a lot of time if you just slash everything until it is dead. Moving Sia is pretty easy, not much to explain. Sia can also shoot energy balls which are charged up and fires when ready, you can fire diagonally, up, left, or right. Now the Spells are kind of tricky, it is just a button combo but if you can get the hang of it it's on, if you can't, don't worry, you won't need them much. Sia can also turn into a Sasquatch and when she is a Sasquatch the control is completely different, but is still pretty easy. The bosses are really something, they are pretty easy once you figure out how to beat them. If you have trouble (like on the walrus boss) just read the FAQ's.

Story 90 %
The story's okay, I don't want to risk giving out any spoilers so just check it out for yourself.

Graphics 100%
Dude, the graphics are just plain great, just look at the screen shots of the game, it's like a watercolor painting, it could only get better if the GBA had a sharper screen.

Sound 90%
The game music is pretty good, they use some tracks for multiple areas, but that's okay. The sound effects are pretty good too, it makes hacking the enemies more fun too. You can also adjust the volume for the Game music and the sound effects in the options menu or at the start screen.

Play time/replay value 100%
It takes a couple hours to beat the game but the challenge of getting all perfects just adds to the replay value. And if you have all perfects just try to get a better time. The game has 4 worlds with 5 levels in each (counting the secret levels) for a total of 20 levels.

Final recommendation
I would recommend strongly for you to buy this game. It has a few glitches, but what game does not have glitches anyway. So, just buy this game.
