God of Thunder

The Good
Although most reviewers (the 9 year old types) will look straight at the graphics, sound, etc. and scoff, the hardcore gamers who realize that visuals aren't everything will (hopefully) see a great deal of depth in this game. It has a plot, not like the type you'll see in Final Fantasy, but one nonetheless. I enjoyed its simplicity and lack of tedious puzzles. Sure, some of them might require some thinking, but its not anything to worry about. If you're looking for a top-down game thats fun, try this game.

The Bad
Unfortunately, the cartoonish look to the game will probably turn most gamers away. The sound is nothing to brag about, but thats why there are speakers, right? The plot is virtually non-existent, and some "fattening up" might have been needed for a good sequel.

The Bottom Line
It's hard to describe any game to another, seeing as how all of our opinions and likes/dislikes tend to differ. For the sake of simplicity, I'll just say this: "If you want a simple game thats fun and amusing, try GOT. If you're looking for the next Zelda or Final Fantasy, look away. This is a classic."

The Good
This is a rewrite of a previous review and I have not much to say, so I'll keep this short: reasonable (if amateurish) graphics, decent music and some plot. Also, the game engine is very smooth on slow machines.

The Bad
The puzzles were all very easy, the sound effects were utterly horrible and even after a few hours the game seems completely static.

The Bottom Line
Personally, I don't think this game is worth the time I spent on it.

The Good
The game is a nice, refreshing thing to play, perfect for a few afternoons. Unlike most games of its kind, this one even has a storyline, sometimes quite nice. The fact that it uses Norse mythology is what attracted me, and although their interpretation in the game should be taken with a pinch of salt, it's very entartaining, nevertheless. The game also proved great fun for my young nephew and niece. A game that can appeal to both adults and children is indeed a rarity!

The Bad
By Odin, there's not a single thing I disliked about it! :)

The Bottom Line
Good fun for just about everyone, with perhaps an exception of those who were bred in the times of Quake and started out with Pentiums in their heads.

The Good
It is a simple game with many posibilities, that gives the young player a chance to use strategy, think ahead, and use memory.

The Bad
Did not find anything I didn't like.

The Bottom Line
If you have a kid between 6 - 10 years old, give it a try. They will be glued to it easily.

The Good
Great graphics, gameplay and so on.

The storyline is incredible, it is possibly my favorite game next to Prince of Persia 2!

It is incredibly fun to play, I never knew that throwing a hammer could be so much fun!

The Bad
It can become as difficult as Tomb Raider at times.

The Bottom Line
A game worth playing for certain.

It is an RPG that apart from it's only flaw (difficulty) can be as enjoyable as Pokemon Yellow.
