Heylo again everyone! So does anyone out there watch the
web-series Game Grumps? It's a set of videos on Youtube by Jontron and
Egoraptor of them just having fun playing games. It's plenty of fun to watch!
But sometimes I can't help but giggle at how much trouble they have figuring
things out about the games... It's just so silly watching them keep trying to
do something that seemed so obvious!
That's basically what spurred me to take on Legend of the
Mystical Ninja for the first time myself, to see if it really was as difficult
as they made it out to be! The answer I found...Yes, kind of. ^.^;
Legend of the Mystical Ninja is a Super Nintendo game made
by Konami, starring Kid Ying and Doctor Yang. ...Except not really. See, this
is a game in the Ganbare Goemon series by Konami, and stars Goemon and
Ebisumaru and other friends! It's just one of those silly early era translator
things... Maybe because most people over in the West wouldn't really know who
Ishikawa Goemon is? Hmm...
Anyway! The game itself is pretty fun to play! When I gave
it a shot, I really didn't have any trouble dodging around the enemies running
around... It was the first boss who gave me the most trouble! So I can
definitely see why people might call the game hard. 'Cause, well, it kinda is!
Maybe not super hard, but then this was just my first playing of the
game. Maybe it gets a lot harder later on.
Aesthetically speaking, the game is just marvelous. I mean,
the design of the graphics really works for the kinda silly, Japan-themed game
that it is! And the music just further bolsters that. I was really impressed
with it.
The only thing that really hampered my enjoyment of the
game, really, is just how many enemies show up at a time... And some of them
seem to have nearly unavoidable attacks if you let them get it off! And when
they show up all the way across the screen from you, how can you stop that? So
it is the kinda game that can be kind of unfair sometimes...
And as such, I think the flavor of the game was more salty
than anything!
Not really a bad experience at all, just something that'd be
good to not have too much of at once!
Salty :|
