Summary

Quite a fun game!

The Good

I've already written a review for this game, which tended to be negative rather than positive, but after this I played the game again and felt I was unfair to it. I don't know what I was thinking. The game is fresh, funny, original and entertaining. The plot is one of the best in the series. No wonder: Roger Wilco falls in love! The game features cute animations, nice graphics, comfortable, easy-going music, and lots of mild humor.

The Bad

It doesn't have the satiric power of the fourth game. Nevertheless, it has humor of its own and it's not bad at all. I didn't particularly like the huge amount of time spent in a ship and figure out the commands I should give. What is this, a space flight simulation?

The Bottom Line

It may not be as hilarious as SQ IV, but still provides lots of fun.
