Bucky O'Hare

Bucky's good finger-flexing fun. Even if you don't like the comic book, the cartoon, and the action figures, you'll like the game. Expect to see young Bucky fans multiplying like...like kids in math class.

Holy mother! Just writing this freakin' review has put me in such a mood to play. I hafta hurry this recap up so I can jump down my house and scramble to my lair and play. Bucky O'Hare has seemingly NO major flaws whatsoever, and basically guarantees a great time, unless you are one of those overly negative people who hate EVERYTHING, even good stuff, in which case I guarantee nothing. It is fun as hell, the music is freakin' awesome, the control is as creamy as melted butter, the graphics are prime, especially for its time, and the replay value is killer. Buy. Steal. Whatever. Just get. Now.

There's a ton of variety in this game too. You will encounter so many traps that you'll be going crazy. (especially in the Magma Tanker) The game also has a nice password feature (you only have to enter a five figure code) and weapon format. You must build up the power of your special ability and must do this for each character individually. For example, Bucky 'O Hare can jump high if you use his special ability. If you get enough powerup symbols, he will jump REALLY high. I highly recommend this game. It's a lot of fun!

Bucky O’Hare ist ein insgesamt gutes, wenn eben auch recht schweres Jump n’ Run, das man wohl nicht so schnell durchspielen wird. Es ist auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.

If you are a huge Bucky O’Hare fan then this game is a no-brainer. Any fans of Mega Man style platformers will probably enjoy it as well. The rest of you will be able to find plenty of other NES games that are better than this one.

A decent enough platformer which suffers from being over predictable and a wee bit easy.
