Clockwork Knight (Normal) - Great fun game! The game's way too short, and is a primitive 2.5d platformer as all you do is go right and there are no perspective shifts, but still, what's there works well and is fun, and I definitely liked the game overall. Good graphics too. The last two bosses were tough, at least, but I got through them... it took about 15-18 lives to do so, but I won. I was down to only 6 lives at the end, and the game has no continues, so it's lucky I won, I didn't want to have to start the game over again. But yeah, fun game. It's basically got a similar concept to Toy Story, except it was released before that movie -- it's about toys that come alive. Also it's about a toy knight having to rescue the kidnapped princess, as I say in my Saturn review thread. Yeah, lame story. The CG cutscenes are quite high quality, though. So yeah, overall, for a game from December 1994, it's a nice effort. It's short and primitive for a 2.5d platformer, but it's certainly good enough to be worth playing.
