Title: Best Wizards & Warriors game?
Post by: guyjin on January 20, 2010, 04:15:45 AM
What was the best game in the series? IMHO, the Original had the best gameplay, but the 2nd had awesome graphics and sound.

I voted for Chapter X, but only because I had it back in the day and consequently played the hell out of it. I don't recall ever playing parts II or III, but the original was damn good fun as well.
P.S. - What's wrong with eating live pussy? I'm not down (so to speak) with necrophilia.

that's the only one I've never played. Should I put it on my list of games to get when I get a super game boy?

You may as well; it can't be worth more than a couple bucks (what GB game is?), so you won't be out much if you end up not caring for it.

My brother and I played the heck out of the original game. He was better than me, though, and I borrowed his techniques to beat the game. We borrowed the game from a friend, who said it was veery difficult, so naturally our goal was to beat it ASAP.
Some of the platforming can be unforgiving (narrow ledges to stand on)!

something odd I encountered: I was trying to rember the game over tune from Wizards & Warriors 2, and searched all over youtube for it, and found, like, one instance of it.
turns out, they used the same tune for the shops, which I had forgotten, and nearly everyone calles it the store/shop theme.

Fortress of Fear on gameboy was awesome when I was a kid!
I never knew there was a Gameboy installment.
And it was good, you and Arkhan say...
Damn. I don't have enough time on this planet to play all the games I missed out on.

Keep in mind it was one of my favorite games when I was 7... I haven't touched it since. I am going to pick it up at the flea market next time I go and give it a spin.

Wizards and Warriors: Fortress of Fear for the gameboy is not quite as good as I remember it. The sword attack feels weak and doesn't give any impression of being a warrior. Also, the spring like jumping is kinda odd, and is a straange design choice.
However, I will admit the graphics do have their charm. Also, the game does feel like wizards and warriors, I especially like the text in the game. Lastly, I am a big fan of the music. I am going to try again to beat this game, but I don't think I will be successful, it is very difficult to control.

If it crosses my path, I'll pick up W&W for Gameboy. I love playing installments that I never knew about. I overlooked a lot of Gameboy games, because, hey, it was the stupid Gameboy and I didn't consider it worthwhile back in the day.
