Metal Dragon Life on Mars
SCORE: 55
Were you able to catch my jamming livestream of Metal Dragon Life on
Mars on Twitch? There was some good, bad and ugly when I live streamed
Metal Dragon Life on Mars. First and foremost I am thankful I had the
money to buy this indie compilation video game that plays on the
Evercade systems. I liked one of these games, and did not like the
other. Which means for me Metal Dragon Life on Mars is fifty-fifty.
There will be spoilers in this review.
Let us get to the good first. I enjoyed my time with Life on Mars. I
actually enjoyed playing this indie video game that felt like a Metroid
video game on the Sega Genesis. We earn power ups that allow us to get
to different areas in Life on Mars. There is a story and a ship in orbit
on the planet Mars. We are there to discover what happened when all
communications were lost. At first the thought is some communication
equipment broke.
As I progressed in Life on Mars I discovered there were zombies. We must
blow them away and there are some disgusting graphics and sounds as they
are being blown apart. There are a lot of colonists in Life on Mars.
There are also robots we must blow away, zombie chickens and more in
Life on Mars. Violence, blood and gore are a part of Life on Mars. This
is sort of the bad or maybe the ugly part of Metal Dragon Life on Mars.
Another part of Metal Dragon Life on Mars that can be bad or ugly is
Metal Dragon. This violent video game that makes zero sense to me has
horrible bad language. Metal Dragon has the F word being used again and
again. Why? Metal Dragon copies the Solid Snake games in a lot of ways.
The odd thing is we are told in Metal Dragon to use stealth and to not
kill anyone.
Why is it so odd that we are told to use stealth in Metal Dragon? We are
playing an Ikari Warriors kind of a video game where all we do is blow
away all of these enemies. I am baffled why we are told to use stealth.
Is it some attempt at humor? Add in the horrible foul mouths that need
to be washed out with soap and Metal Dragon is a bad experience. If the
language had been better I would have enjoyed Metal Dragon more.
