Summary
Sideways scrolling shooter with top quality visuals
The Good
The presentation of this game like most Psygnosis titles is top drawer, with fantastic graphics and music on the title screens and throughout the game. It is very easy to pick and play if you can't be bothered with anything more taxing on the brain.
The Bad
The enemies come in very predictable patterns and the difficulty curve is very slow. The load times are also slow, but this is probably the price paid for the graphics. There are only six levels which shouldn't take the most moderately skilled gamer long to complete.
The Bottom Line
This is a typical sideways scrolling shooter, with some differences in that you control an owl instead of the usual space ship. You have to destroy wave after wave of enemies such as mutated insects and bats. It is very easy to stay alive as the patterns of baddies are very predictable and rarely take you by surprise.
If you pick up all the power ups in the first level you should have no trouble progressing right to the end of the game, as the difficulty curve in later levels in is very gentle.
The graphics and sound are what jump out at you in this game, as the gameplay is very basic. Worth a look if you like this sort of game, if only for the visuals.
