This is a good game to play when you're waiting for time to pass. The challenges to complete make you want to come back for another game, but not to the point of making you addicted to the game.
Unfortunately, at 40 years old I no longer have patience for the clunky controls of that time. The graphics have a nostalgic flavor, but modern consoles with smoothed controls have made me a less patient player. Imagine emulating shift, alt and arrow keys on a modern controller (bad idea in this game). Unfortunately my PC doesn't have that old parallel port to plug in a two-button joypad that I must have stuffed in some cardboard box. Thinking about it. It would be better to also unbox my old 486 and play the original thing (LOL). Now talking about the game: Good nostalgia, cool for people of this generation to know the past, real hard mode (long before Dark Souls). Of course, here saving anywhere is very easy, on the other hand, the jumps, completely out of sync, make everything difficult again. To young people, good luck and patience! As an old man, I can't take it anymore!
It's a difficult game to play, sometimes it's unfair, like when a snake attacks the merchant's shop and he blames you for the transgression. Or when you throw a rock against a wall and it bounces back, conveniently (and calculatedly) hitting you. Of course, over time you learn these tricks of the game and how to avoid them, which, when you think about it, even makes the repetition factor cool. On the other hand, this can be unfairly annoying! Well, I recommend this game to anyone who likes that old suffering of games from the cartridge era, where you advanced to the fifth level of the game only to see a new (and ultra-powerful) type of enemy with a totally unknown attack pattern kill the player character in one attack. Ah That bittersweet feeling of starting all over again!!!!
The game is very interesting. It's a top-down metroidvania. You control Az, a bird/angel whose objective is to kill Satan, to do so you traverse the stage shooting projectiles with your magical halo at demonic henchmen and infernal bosses. You can upgrade your skills, however the weapons progress system could be more direct, but to avoid spoilers, it's better to let you understand the system yourself. I think the game is very good, most of the time I had fun, but there are times when you end up having to go back and forth through the same scenario to progress, but on the other hand it helps you collect collectibles that will be useful.
