Rapanui

Moby ID: 553

Description official description

The sequel to Dionakra, Rapanui is a simple breakout clone for Windows. Basically you control the pad in the bottom and control the ball by moving the pad so that the ball hits it in a specific angle. When the ball hits one of the bricks in the top part of the screen the brick (depending on its type) will disappear.

You can also collect extras (pad extend, faster ball, slower ball, level jump, glue, death or shots) in the process.

Not very challenging.

The Good
I'll keep it short: it's a breakout clone. Neat if undynamic graphics, decent level design, great controls (with my Intellimouse Explorer and RatPadz, programming a bad mouse handler would be a real challenge).

The Bad
It's absolutely unchallenging: I finished it on the first run, and it was easy. The game runs through 52 levels, only the last 10 of which are of any challenge what-so-ever. In case you were wondering, my score was over 1.9 million.

The game is extremely nondynamic, and the levels are too large for their own good - which basically means you'll spend most of your time hunting down single block, which is occasionally frustrating and always BORING.

No proper sound effects or music to speak of don't improve the atmosphere either.



The Bottom Line
A visually pleseant but overly unchallenging Breakout clone. Go play Krypton Egg instead.
