Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

"A Game Struggling for Love"

Introduction
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was a very exceptional game in both plot and game concept. I saw the movie this game was based on and, the plot is much different than the game. I thought that gave this game less points for its lack of plot. I also took off points for the graphics because they could be better, even for GBA. But, as I said before, the game concept was pretty good.

Game Concept
I also liked the idea of alternate types of game play. You would be able to play on a horse and on foot. But I felt that the game concept could be expanded some how.

Characters
The characters blew me away. I especially liked the connection between them, they were all trained in the art of the sword and martial arts.

Improvement
I thought that the game could be improved because of the graphics as I stated before. The faces were kind of blurry when people talked .

Music
The music was well arranged but, limited. There were only different songs for fatal and regular situations plus different levels. I thought maybe more music could be recorded and more to the country. This game is really Chinese and the music was more classical then to the theme.

I personally prefer fantasy games over romance but for the combination of the two, I cut this game some slack,

Title
Also I thought the title could be better. I didn't see any mention of a dragon in this game. I think the title could be more "to the plot". I would suggest something like "Seeking Thief" of "Lost in Another World".

This game is a game that would keep you up all night if you like fantasy and romance plots.

Conclusion
Just because I gave this game an average rating doesn't mean you shouldn't buy it. This is what I think, and there's even other people who reviewed this game. So, I didn't mean to offend you if anything.

Overall, I gave this game a "7". I hope that my review helped your consideration for this game

Hope you enjoyed my opinion,
