Reviews for "Greek & Wicked"

My only Greek friend...KRATOS!

From the first moment I got hooked on writing reviews on flash games and got drawn in to the flash world I wondered only one thing: Why isn't there a flash game with Kratos? If there is except this one I would really like to see it. Still, besides this little game and a very unfunny flash movie about Kratos that I've seen here a couple of months ago, Kratos is absent from the flash scene. Why is that I still don't know. There are many flash games about other famous characters and nobody sued the creators. So come on GODS OF FLASH give us more Kratos falsh games, I know you can do it. SwingSwing has already done it! Unite with him, and create a memorable Kratos flash game. I will provide the story if needed, It would be my pleasure.

But enough with my never ending desires to see many Kratos flash games in the future...it is time to REVIEW!

What we have here is a wonderful little game about the first epic battle in God of War I. The art is interesting and the gameplay returns many memories from my childhood, but it is not unique, just forgotten. Still it is very brave to make this gameplay active in 2010, and I am proud that the creator respects the OLD WAYS OF GAMING :D. So you can't complain about the frame rate ;) The sound effects are solid, but a remake of an epic soundtrack from gow is required, also some camera effects would make this old gameplay look modern. If there is a sequel more puzzling levels would be needed and some finishing moves transformed in old school would be fun to see.

This game is a fun idea and I hope it is the beginning of the Flash Kratos ERA.

SwingSwing responds:

Our lives are not dedicated to Kratos, but it was a pleasure to make this game :)
We hope you'll like our next games, even if Kratos is not in them.

cool but short

Is this inspired by the pocket Mario bros game (the one where you have to make packages in a factory)? The style is really cool.
What i don't understand, i did the story mode, beat the level, and just started the same level over??? That's kinda weird. If there would be more variety this would have a 9/10 or so, now I'm giving it a 7.

SwingSwing responds:

The Game & Watch games are "repetitives", so is this game :)

medals

the game itself was ok, graphics were nice, sounds fitting.

however there is basically no content. it's a fitting parody of god of war, and the qte are nice and stuff, but i have no idea why ng gave medals to this game. there are games with way more things to do and challenges to master that don't get medals.
but giving medals for finishing the game 4 and 7 times in a row is really just boring and plain pointless.

OK, but gets old quick

I love the old hand-held, LCD display, AA battery-powered, portable video game feel to this entry. I just don't think that it has great replay value. Then again, neither did those old-LCD games, and I played Jordan vs. Bird for hours...

So you get props for the retro style, and I think it is decently playable, but it is just too repetitive to play for more than 5-10 minutes (IMO).

To romeomustdie: What is wrong with you? If you are a Greek, you are an embarrassment to the Greek people.

Well..

Better graphics please, I agree that the game is not that bad but I think more colourful background and a good music could improve this game quality.
Perhaps series of levels can make the game looks perfect.
