Pacific

Amtix! (82 out of 100) (82%)

The first thing that struck met about this game was the colour, it's absolutely amazing, and the superb graphics. Unfortunately I feel the game is spoilt by the repetitiveness of the screens and their sheer numbers. The game is far too vast for it to be addictive - wading through hundreds of pointless screens gets a bit tiresome to say the least. I feel a more concise version of the game would have gone down a lot better. Overall, it's just too overwhelming.

Pacific is no more than an average game. Certainly, the graphics are excellent - bright and colourful - but the gameplay seems somewhat lacking. Scrolling between would have helped but the whole thing feels like Sabre Wulf in slow motion and without the exciting bits.
