Pros:
- Very tight and responsive
Cons:
- A bit too easy
The controls are a huge part of games like these. I got pretty into CSD 1&2 this last year and this taps into a similar frame of mind of not-thinking-while-still-recognizing-required-components-then-hitting-buttons-real-fast-and-accurately. I never lost a life though, which is due to how quick it is to visit the barrels and then land at the bar to toss it back. It also takes a bit of a while to get started, and it maybe could have benefited by making the last wave or two difficult enough to practically force losses of lives but still be just winnable. That might be too much to ask for, especially in the difficulty of gauging that … difficulty for a broad range of people who'll play this game. I thought the voice acting was nicely done, someone was seemingly doing their best Nelson Muntz impression for one line that I couldn't stop hearing. Very solid, nicely polished and responsive.
