Reviews for "Runes of Shalak"
SUCKS!
because they only you do in the game is run collecting coins dying and medals(im okay with medals) but you need to make this crappy game into a better game
hard
it was pretty lame and hard with no color and it was so boreing watching him run across the screen
Reminds me how much I hated the Atari days
Such an annoying game. And that stupid animation of the dude running across the screen at the beginning of each level? Made me want to break my computer in the style of a Gamefly commercial. Some of the levels were so fucking hard, and every time I died, I had to watch that damn asshole run across the screen before I could try again. So. Fucking. Annoying. Especially since I would often die several times, and only stay alive for a few seconds before having to watch him run across the screen again. Couldn't you have just shown the run across the screen animation when you first start each level and not every time you die? I spent more time watching that animation than I did playing the game and writing this review put together.
But yeah, Atari games were annoying. Die in one hit, nameless scribbles for enemies, and anything from a stick figure to a dot for your character. All the Atari games were like that. So in terms of bringing back the Atari days? You succeeded gloriously. Don't do it again. I'm playing this game for the medals.
For an Atari game though, this would probably have sold well, it's better than most of them, and was enjoyable enough that I'm not gonna give you a zero. Mostly I just couldn't stand the level loading, certain game mechanics, and level designs that got tedious, especially when I died a lot and had to redo it over and over again. Really though? If you just fixed the level loading problem, I'd give this an 8 or 9. It's really that annoying.
bad
