In light of all the great 2D platformers of the SNES/Playstation/Genesis era, I simply could not recommend a game with such low production values. I know this game is just a remake of an NES game, but this would have made a better downloadable game for $10 then a more full-priced retail game. Broken down:
Graphics - Looks great...for an SNES game. But that was 15 years ago, and this game brings nothing new to the table visually and doesn't even come close to what one expects of a current generation title.
Music - Incredibly repetitive. The tunes are not memorable and the same song will play for several stages in a row so you are left listening to the same tune for hours.
Plot - What plot? Not like a platformer needs one, but it still would have been nice to at least have a little character development. Title says it all.
Controls and Gameplay - Very easy and intuitive, you just toss jellybeans around to turn your blob into tools and then solve simple puzzles. I barely ever got stuck in the game and you have unlimited lives and tons of checkpoints throughout a level so frustration stays at a minimum--except on the challenge levels, those are a whole other story. The game description says there are 80 levels but its really more like 40 with another 40 short challenge levels you can unlock for collecting all 3 treasure chests in a level. I barely coaxed myself to finish the game, but only so I could hurry up and sell it. I would never play this game again. Far too boring.
