Reviews for Hunter II: Olympus-Mons (#2395)

Review by YOR on 27 Dec 2018 (Rating: 1)

As I loaded this up I said to myself, let me guess it's the exact same game as Hunter, it isn't though. The intro is really different and I have to say, given what he was playing with, David Rushall put a lot of effort into the intros of these games, Hunter's was quite impressive given its time, memory and written in BASIC and this is impressive also with the volcano eruption, I'm impressed. What I'm not impressed with though is the entire game which seems to be broken. It is basically Scramble but you move up and fire automatically and have no control of your helicopter at all, plus you are hit for no reason at all, the enemies are nowhere near you yet it registers a hit. This is broken, whether it's the code, the snapshot, the actual game itself or all of the above I'm not sure, but it's a shame because I liked the intro and I like Scramble, but this is broken as hell.
