Slip up
The first thing I have to say is, since
this is a mega exclusive, the version
we had to play is unfinished with no
in-game sound or audio FX and a few
bugs and spurious visual FX still
evident.
However, this in no way detracts
from what is an absolute gem of a
game Dragons Lair is a total joy to
behold.
The graphics and animation are
quite simply superb, and fantasticallydetailed backgrounds abound, but
best is Dirk's animation. He seems a
little slimmer than usual but runs,
jumps and swings his mighty weapon
with choreographed
grace. The only trouble is, he seems to
have a problem with

smashing certain bonus icons

scattered around the levels.
Part of the trick's to use the correct
weapon for each section, but be
certain you know how to use each
one before launching an attack! For
example, the throwing star's very
powerful but has a habit of doing a
boomerang impression, so make sure
you duck.
Other power-ups include a magic
potion to bestow limited invulnerability
when only one contact with an
enemy of whatever power kills you,
this is damn useful.

Dungeon difficulty
The sheer hardness is really the major
problem with Dragons Lair Difficulty
level on other formats has always
been awesome, but this takes the
biscuit'
Not only must Dirk be pixel perfect
with jumps, denizens regenerate
rapidly and many, such as the Baiter
a rather nasty flying dragonette
appearing on a
regular basis are
'intelligent' and home
in on him with
annoyingly fatal
regularity.
Couple this with
Dirk's inability to defend himself
effectively from overhead attacks, or
while prone, and you have a game
that in its present form results in
massive hair loss through tearing out!

Set to be a
really hot, surefired winner!

To be fair though, this is a preproduction cart still several stages

from completion and Elite say
gameplay faults will be corrected by
the release date.
Planned improvements include a
five-hit energy bar, movement with
less sliding about, overhead fire via
Dirks throwing weapons and less
frequent homing enemies.
But even now, though unfinished
and incredibly difficult, the
addidiveness just has to admired. I
haven't stopped playing it all week
and spent hours just trying to climb
one rope!

This is going to be one hell of a game,
as long as the frustrating faults are
ironed out. Provided that it's done
properly. Elite quite possibly have the
best game of its genre.
Ilook forward with straining thews
and gore-soaked axe to reviewing the
finished product cos without a doubt,
this looks set to be a really hot, surefired winner!

Onthe ropes... climbing'sjustoneof theskills to masterin thismassiveplatform

Even as we speak, we've just received a m n c e d vers
this game and many of the faults have alrea n corrected.
Forward momentum's been altered meaning less sliding
around. there's now a four-hit power bar, and the difficulty level's
reduced so the game's now infinitely
done Elite!

more to follow.

Marshal madness!
Dear N-FORCE gang!
When I picked up N-FORCE for
99p I was expecting an okay meg.
However, with the Streettighter 2 pies,
AND Turtles 4, AND Bart Simpson 2, I
was both shocked and impressed!
Ilike the layout, and the female ed
is certainly different to other mags.
The news pages are also good. I have
a few gripes though:
1.The artist: Oli Frey. All his
drawings are the same and contain
too much violence,
2. The screen shots aren't up to
much. Probably the main flaw. Are
you using an English PAL sNEst?. If so,
get a SCART version.
3. Marshal.
4. The number of pages: not
enough. The competition (you know

who I mean) has far more pages.

5.Marshal.
Sorry if I've put a downer on
things, but that's the way it goes.
Ben Jackson, Halifax
I don't know about putting a
downer on things, you seem like a
bit of a down-and-out to me mate.

methods for grabbing our screen

possible. Nothing can be perfect all
the time but we're working on it!

section done by your American

correspondent because no other mag
has got anything about America, also
the reviews because of having two
people reviewing games, so then you
get two different views on games and
percentages and also the news
because of things coming out in the
UK.
But why don't you have a
Japanese correspondent, to tell
people what's happening in Japan,
like all the new releases
and gadgets?

Best ever
Vol Gang,
I don't know a story but I'd like you
to answer these very simple
questions., please.
1. Is there going to be a Super
Mario Brothers 5? If so, when will it be
out?
2. When will Streettighter 2 be out
on the sNEs?
3.Should I get The Legend of the
Mystical Ninja or Turtles 4?
4,Thanks for helping dudes, I think
this is the best mag in the world do
you?...
Gareth Townsend, Harrogate.
1. Don't know for sure, but I'd
hazard a definite maybe...
2. It's out in the UK on grey
import as we speak.
3.Depends what you're into
really. We've only had a sneak

preview at the old shelly-backs,

whereas Mystical Ninja we've
played all the way through (check
out Ace's High) and it's absolutely
brilliant!
4. Don't ask damn stupid
questions no doubt about it
N-FORCE is indubitably,
unquestionably the BEST!

Apart from that the mag's OK. It's

good to see someSNESand less of
the crappyNESand Game Boy. Cos
let's face it, Nintendo's future is in the
SNES.

Chris Gale, Peterstield.

Well Chrissy boy, here's a new

mag. Here are some questions:

1. Is it true that Acclaim are
bringing out an X-Men game? If so
when?
2. Are there any other mega-gab
Marvel super hero games planned?
What are they, and when will they be
out?
3. How much will theSNESCD addon and the games cost? When they
are available?
4.How long will we have to wait for
Super Mario World 2?
5, Will the Super ScopeisNEs
bundle include Mario?
6. Will there be a joystick for the

buttons
be incorporated?

Will

l Stuart Fenegant Hockley. Essex
lPhew! You don't want much do
t
you?
Well I'll try my best:
h 1. The Amazing Spider-Man &
e
Uncanny X-Men: Arcade's Revenge
was
[ launched in the USA this May,
so
1 you should be able to get it on
S

releases
include Wolverine and
a
Spider-Man: Return of the Sinister
n
d
[
R
]

Six for the NESand Spider-Man for

the Game Boy. No release dates
yet.
a TheSNESCD should be
available Spring 1993, but we've no
idea how much it will cost.
4. The Mario game's the ace
Super Mario Kart combining the
graphics of Super Mario World and

F-Zero c h e c k it out in our news

pages now!
5. The Super Scope comes with
six games but unfortunately no
Mario, sob.
6. Joysticks for theSNESare on
their way and will probably just
have buttons on the base of the
stick for [L] and [R].
7. The Mario and Zelda CDs will
be totally new games from their
cartridge cousins w a i t to see
what they're like.
8. This seems like the standard
price at the moment.

FID tjniijj

Aa

Great names for the little ball- t h a t star here. Become Foxy, Babe, or
Bozo and take on pug-uglies that guard gems Each level looks like a
PacMan maze in the recession; very minimalistic. What makes it hard is
you can't directly control your character he's always moving like a pingpang ball So just bounce him off blocks and objects to hit the jewels. While
avoiding the enemies of course.

You've got Simon
Dolan of London to
t h a n k for this crucial
guide to the brilliantNES
title. May the force be with you, rebel
scum!
Essential items to pick up along the
way:
Shields Found in some of the
caves on Tatooint The more shields
you have, the easier it is to
successfully cross the Asteroid field.
Orbs Ideal for replenishing low
energy levels.
1-Ups Don't be alarmed if you
see Luke's severed head. Grab it
for an extra life. Talk about getting
ahead!

Stage Select:
On the title screen, hit [Al four times, [B] four times, then [A]

General strategies:
Talk to C-3P0 at all times. The whining one's a mine of information, Trus
his guidance and you won't go far wrong. Practise your running jumps. In
later levels these are essential, so perfect them while you have the chance,
Dump Luke's blaster as soon as you get the more powerful Lightsaber. The
Ughtsaber defeats most enemies with a single hit!
If lives are running low there's a special hidden tunnel in Obi-Wan's cave
that solves the problem. As you descend into the cave keep an eye out for a
section of wall that appears different Use a running lump to leap into the
section, which reveals itself as a secret tunnel. Jump to the left, clear the
shaft, and waste the Sandperson. For your efforts you're rewarded with two
1-Ups.
Another hot tip to use when piloting the Millenium Falcon. When the TIE
fighters shoot green lasers at you, don't try to dodge them. Your only char
is to shoot the lasers before they hit your ship. This is easier than it sounds
because your gun sight doesn't have to be on your target. As long as your
lasers hit enemy targets. it doesn't matter whether they're under the
gunsight or in your laser's path. For example. if two lasers are coming at you
from opposite sides, aim the gunsight between the two lasers and tire and
you get both lasers at once!

T h e Legend
Of The
Mystical
Ninja
Okay sushilovers, last month
Gunns reviewed
this brilliant
Japanese beat-tem-up
based adventure and now
we've got together, mapped
it and put together a kimono
full of the hottest tips around!
The most important thing in
Mystical Mink is to take
your time and explore! Hang
around early levels, where
enemies are weakest and
collect as many coins,
scrolls and power-up's
(cuddly kitty's) as possible.
Keep an eye out for
gorgeous geisha girls or old
grannies. Don't kill them!
Instead, rescue them for
$100 or $50. Move on to the
next section when you get
the Yokahamma yo-yo or
the enormous novelty
comedy party blower.
There's no problem mashing
the enemy with these
brilliant. bendy, extra-long
weapons!
Shops on the early levels
contain nothing exciting, so
save your cash for projectile
weapons to kill the first level
guardian. Use your clash
wisely and you'll be able to
afford useful extras like
bombs, shoes and even
extra lives!
The map has been put
together in the order you see
the sections on the screen.
You begin the game in the
middle of the first level and
you can journey either above
or below your starting
position. Keep your bearings
and follow the handy tips to
reach places you've never
seen before!

Shoot or hit the lanterns. White 1

ones spit bombs at you, red ones
fling fire in your direction. Smeg

Hit his head with missiles from the
platforms. It takes a lot but it's
worth it to save the cute kitty.

Holy cow! Metals have mysteriously

One's a highly toxic substance used

workings of one master criminal. You
guessed it, that white-faced, greenhaired Joker's on the loose again.
Only Batman can stop him.
Pursue the Joker through four
seedy underworld levels s ew er s .

the missions in any order.

and all the sound effects, so bat-bop

The graphics are gob-smacking,

well-sized and brilliantly animated.
Climb walls using a grappling
hook. Defeat the Joker's vile
henchmen with power punches and
by chucking Batarangs i f you can

moving to the next level.

This is my kind of super hero. A man

dressed all in black, punching the living
daylights out of criminals. I wouldn't wear
the silly mask though (aah shame Ed), I
want everyone to enjoy my good looks!
Batman Return of The Joker is a really slick leap

Using Ken or Ryu for example,
the basic move's the kick.
Experienced players know these
characters use a strong squatting
kick to knock the enemy over, then
repeatedly use a weak kick to daze
opponents. They also have three
command-type master moves (the
most of all the fighters). These are:
The Hadoken (moving blow or
psycho fire) move the joystick in
the order [DOWN], [DOWN], [R], [R]
quickly and press a punch button.
The stronger the punch the faster the
flying speed. However, the strength
always remains the same. The
disadvantage with this technique is

and a kick button. Once again, flying
distance changes according to the
strength of the kick button pressed.
In all instances, when the opponent's
on the left, the [L] and [R] controls are
reversed. However the Up and Down
controls remain the same.

SplitPersonalities
Just to confuse you, three of the four Devas have different names on
the American version of this cart. We reviewed the Japanese game, but
on the good ole USA copy M. Bison's called Balrog, Balrog's called
Vega, and Vegas called M. Bison (looking like they do, some of them
are bound to have an identity crisis). The faces and talent are still the

isn't honourable to use this technique in two-player competition but in
player use it without hesitation' Probably the most important thing to
master is the sequence of moves open to each character. By combining a
series of special attacking moves you can rapidly defeat your opponent's
energy level and score a quick knockout' These sequences for Ryu or Ke
help you immensely.
Hadoken S h o r y u k e n . This is the most spectacular and effective
combination. The only problem with Hadoken is you freeze for an instant
after using it and leave yourself vulnerable to attack. To combat this, as

Big bunnies!
Those who know the Game Boy
version can see at a glance that on
theNES,this wacky adventure is
bigger than ever.
Six humungous levels littered with
sub-stages make this toon-ridden
treasure a cartoon carnival without
rival. You can no longer flick between
characters, instead take one loon
chum along at a time. Far from
detracting from the game, this adds
an extra strategy element.
As each perennial pal has different
attributes, the art is in choosing the

right character for each section. Dizzy

Devil's your best bet in the Sure Weird

Motion Ocean.
Action's for one player only and

Graphics are brilliant, each level has a
different theme and feel The amazing
animation sets this title apart from its
counterparts.
I love the careful attention to detail
the way Buster's ears waggle as
he gracefully bounds from ledge to
ledge. In-game loony toons really
capture the wacky cartoon spirit.
The funky fluffy sounds, perfectly

gameplay's as

cough up carrots just by looking at it! Trouble is, it's a
fantastic game too! All the characters from the hit
animated series are here, packed with animation and
each having their own special moves. The multi-level
platform adventure has been done over and over again on the NES,
Mario being the classic example. If people want to play these games,
companies will keep producing them. And why not when they're just
so addictive and playable? Watch all your favourite cartoon

However, there are one or two
weak points such as no indication

mostly guess work, there are only two

Sweaty helmets and

sounds like SHADES
has been at the disco again!
igel Mansell eat yer heart out,
you've got some strong
competition and it's on the
Game Boy!
World Circuit Series is the ultimate
cart for anyone who'd like to jump into
the driving seat of a fire-breathing,
high-powered beast on wheels, but
can't drive for toffee.
Options ooze out of every nook
and cranny of the track. Three types
of game are available: practice, single
race and series circuit. The last gives
a tour around the world visiting
different courses in each country and
driving against stiff computerised
competition.
Three categories are selectable
Formula 3, F-3000 or the ultimate in
driving sport Formula 1.

Crazy customising
Races can be run on any of the 16
international courses England,
America, Japan, you name it, there's
a course there! Players can select
pre-defined cars, or customise their
own with engines, wings. tires and
transmission available.
If you've mates with the same cart
and a game-link cable you can even
take part in a four-way race.
After going through the options the
game still looks the same. The only
differences are the track shape, car
handling and the speed at which it
zips about.
Every track has a pit stop, and

urgent repairs flash up in the comer of

the screen.
The pit stop is the most
graphically-pleasing part of the game
with animated mechanics jumping out
from the wings and wopping off the
tyres before you can say 'fill her up
with 4-star please guv'. Choose a list
of car components to solve any
problems which arise with your motor.

'Nuassof 4 1 1 1
)
Formula 1 racing's a nightmare with
cars spinning off the track and lots of
pit stops to repair the damage.
The one criticism is collision is
totally unrealistic in World Circuit
Series. Instead of bouncing off each
other, the cars go straight through
each other. It's like being in a race
with a bunch of spooks! This is only a

minor moan it's still wildly addictive.

This game's packed with detailed
graphics and has more options than a
pack of chocolate drinks, making it
one of the best of its type I've played
on the Game Boy. Putting a handheld
pedal to the metal was never so much
fun!

There are really only two ways to
create a driving game. The driving
seat view with 3-D track, or aerial view
with all the action happening
Scalextric style.
The latter certainly seems to be
the best suited to the Game Boy.
Those who want a fun trip about the
track with an almost-guaranteed win
had better go for the Formula 3.
- Right from the start this game screams
quality. After the annoying ping that greets
you every time you power up your Game
, B oy , your ears am assailed by the roar of
Formula 1 cars howling past the pits and
some great in-game music. The number of options is
quite astounding, and they're easy to access and
understand somethIng of a novelty these days. At no
time do you feel the game is getting beyond you or a
need to refer to the manual. Without a doubt this is at its
best on the four-player adapter. My only complaint is
that having competed in this mode the one player game
loses a lot of its attraction. All in all a fine racing s i n c i

to see me? How many time have you been asked that
and had to admit that it's just a rolled up hanky full of
bogies? Well never fear, now you can get predatory
pocket-sized platform punchers for your NES. I'm all for
different perspectives on what's a very common game theme and this
is great. The depth of play, animation, backgrounds and control
system all point to a great deal of time spent on play testing. The only
niggle's a nasty sprite flicker which occurs when the screen's
crowded but this doesn't seriously detract from the game. And by the
way I've always had a monster in my pocket and it's fully automatic!

this action-packed shoot-lem-up. On the debit side the
title falls short in the playability dept. Our hero, at times,
appears to have a mind of his own (which I find very hard to believe!).
A distinct lack of originality the villain imaginatively named Dr Evil

it all before. Graphics and sonics are varied, although basic at times.
On the other hand, I thoroughly enjoyed the six different scenarios.

Tips? Use sense, keep moving,
don't try and save fuel when
approaching a tank that might move
out of range s a v e the fuel for
long-range travelling.
Don't waste laser-guided shells,
use only when the situation really
requires them (like when a tank's far
off and heading away). Cut speed
when a minefield's near, but best to
avoid them entirely. When you reach
the edge of the map, you reappear
on the other side. This is a faster way
to get from one extreme end than
blowing dust all the way.
Finally, don't use that damned
smoke generator unless there's a
need you've got the speed to get
away from almost any trouble.

Platforms are placed in just the
right spot to give a pathway through
the mayhem, but one wrong move
and the brave bloke plummets to the
ground with a sickening thud.
Boomerang Kid combines joypad
agility with brain-teasing puzzles but
just doesn't strike me between the
eyes and shout 'good game, good
game'! Jolly graphics, but the
gameplay's too fiddly to keep most
players amused.

Okay mid level but no intro

Detailed backdrops and 3D

My first thought when I saw Mig 29 was

Afterburner rip-off. Of course it couldn't be
as goad as the classic arcade game but I
was quite impressed with the variation
between 2-0 and 3-D perspectives.
Scrolling's smooth throughout, controls reasonably
responsive. There's a choice between simulator and
arcade style controls but the only difference appears to
be that the up and down controls are reversed! A good
variety of missions ensure a high lastability rating. If
you're looking for an airborne shoot:ern-up that
combines action and strategy make sure you give Mig
29 a try. Roger and out!

his Smart Ball is one weird dude! A small bluey blob that
stretches and squashes into all
sorts of shapes to move
through tricky situations.
He wasn't always this odd.
Before being transformed into a
rotten plum tomato he was Jerry

the oldest son of King Geoffrey of

Kyliria. When the king snuffed it, his
younger son. Tom, was a bit upset at
missing out on ruling the land so he
hired a wicked wizard to kidnap
Jerry's wife, Wendy, and turn his
bruvver into a small ball.
Now Jerry must get the kingdom

PAGE 90 ON-FORCE AUGUST 1992

back to normal or spend the rest of his

days being splattered around a tennis
court!

Where's my blob?
Jerry's adventure takes him through
Kyliria and beyond to the orbiting
moon. Deserted towns, arctic
wastelands and great mountains all
have their unique collection of critters
harmless to humans but deadly for a
small ball.
Field mice, rabbits, penguins and
marching rocks all
look so cute it's
hard to kill them
but i t's got to be
done before they do
it to Jerry. A sharp
splurge in the right
direction does the
trick in most cases
but swallow rubber and iron balls and
spit 'em out to deal with the stubborn
stains.
Other power-ups include an
amazing double jump, extra hearts to
store energy, extra lives and seeds that
grow ladder-like plants. Steal these
from flowers blooming about the land. A
normal blossom gives one power-up
butspecial eternal flowers keep
growing back to re-collect indelinftely.
A cutesy platform game just
wouldn't be complete without
traditional letters to collect for extra
lives. Flags dotted in the far comers of

each level spell out JERRY and if

collected in sequence give two lives,

Over 'ere son!

Smart Bail is a fantastic game with lots
of snazzy graphics, parallax scrolling,
excellent characters and superb
effects. Everyone looked on in awe as
Ientered the moon level and the
whole cheesy ball rotated through 360
degrees with objects and characters
all enjoying the trip (they were quite
impressed with the game too)!
The different
melodies for each level
are audio delights
you'd almost think
there was a piano and
a100-piece orchestra
hiding behind the
curtains!
Ifound the game a
bit too easy to get through with the
end-of-level giant chickens and
penguins being knocked off their
perches with no trouble at all.
Infinite continues also slice away
some of the lastability. Jumping and
clinging to walls and ceilings takes
quite a bit of practice but loads of fun
once mastered.
Smart Bait may be a little easy but
it you're looking for a platform
adventure that offers a new angle to
make a change from the endless
Mario clones then take a shifty at this!

'Thank 'even for leetal bolls cos leetal bolls get smarter
every day'. Such were the words of world famous toupee
wearer and professional short person Maurice Chevalier
when he played Smart Bali for the first time. As for me I
haven't seen such an attractive and addictive game
since Super Mario World. The off-the-wall (pardon the pun) approach
to a platform game really made me sit up and take notice, absolutely
masses of power-ups and an enormous playing area. Truly novel with
loads of balls. Not a gun in sight but what the hell. M I N N S 92%

captured the imaginations of players
all over the USA.

On the cards
MicroProse started out creating flight
simulations in the US ten years ago.
They've had five busy years in the UK
and recently won an award at the
European Computer Trade Show for
top software house. After many years
dominating the PC simulation market
they're now moving into Nintendo.
After F-15, the next bigNESrelease
will be F-117A. More bottomshattering aerial action awaits with
some pretty snazzy in-flight and
presentation graphics.
The F-117A is a reconnaissance
aircraft, so you can guarantee there'll
be some interesting missions and
plenty of awards and medals to be
presented with.
All youSNESN-Forcers have got
Super F-15 and Railroad Tycoon to

look forward to very soon. Planned

Flying games for theNEShave been very limited up to now, with set
missions and a pre-set stream of enemies attacking. F-15 Strike Eagle
takes this one step further allowing players to fly anywhere inside a 3-D
world, select targets and make all the decisions. The plane performs all the
moves with rolls. loops, dives and simulated sick bags at the touch of a
joypadl
Four levels of difficulty novice to ace make the game enjoyable for
all ages. Selecting novice makes things like landing and taking off
automatic, but ace (he gets everywhere!) gives players full control over the
jet and adds decoy options. The seven missions all have historic settings
and there is a medal waiting at the end if enough points are scored (or a
wooden spoon if not)!

Everything in F-15 Strike Eagle has been made as authentic as possible

with features like HUD display, mission map. decoy, speed and radar
threat display. Players can even choose to bail out of the jet in an
impossible situation!
F-15 Strike Eagle will be available for yourNESin September at around
NO. The Game Boy version of the game will be released for Christmas
and is the first flight simulation for the handheld. It has similar scenarios to
other formats and includes multiple options like dive and spin with excellent
graphics, award ceremonies and medals.

Go supersonic!
The SNES Super Strike Eagle will blow the minds of flight simulation fans
out there. It includes 256 colours, digitised stereo sound, authentic flight
modules and superb realistic graphics. Scheduled for release around
March 1993 it promises to surprise many people who thought they knew

simulations,

and Pirates. Stay tuned to future

MircoProse are not only the masters
i of flight simulation, they've created
some impressive simulations ranging from Grand Prix to the highlyaddictive Railroad Tycoon foro
theSNES.
As the president of a railroad company, the player competes against
other railways across the US .for business. There are lour settings, each in
a different time period and trains to match. The UK settings start in the
early 1800s with only Stevenson's
A Rocket on the fleet of trains! To ensure
your rail service is the best in the land stations, depots and terminals can
be built to network between cities.
L Passenger, mail and cargo carriages
can be linked to each train depending on what freight* s waiting at the
next station, An icecream stallIwould probably attract custom too!
This superb management game has full colour maps of the country and
animated trains chugging along
1their lines. This is probably the best train
set you'll ever play with!
