Rodland

There's little doubt about it, Rodland is an absolutely screaming blast of a game. It's cute, playable and very large. But beyond all that, it has that ever elusive one-more-go feel to it. It's especially fun when you try the two player option, because then you're competing with your buddy to make it to the bonuses first. The chaps at Storm have made it an easy game to leap around in, everything moves fast and there's no colour clashing. The sound's rather groovy too, not quite Jesus Jones, but cool none-the-less. Do yourself a favour, nip down the shops, buy this game and spend a long, long time trying to bash those naughty sharks. Ecological it ain't, but groovesome it certainly is!

Ultimately, Rodland is great fun. You get the obligatory big bosses every so many levels. It's just a shame that there's only around 35 levels. Even still, there's plenty to keep you playing. Rodland may be completely twee, but you wouldn't want a little machismo preventing you from enjoying a high-class game now, would you...?
