What is up Vizzed? It's Joey W back at it again with another Pokemon review! Today I will be reviewing Pokemon Snakewood, a post apocolyptyc game taking place in Hoenn. Before I get started I want to apologize if this review is not up to par. I typed out an elaborate review and for some reason, it didn't post and I lost it all. So I'm a little distracted! But nonetheless, I hope you still enjoy this review!
So let's start with the graphics. The developers of this game created new Pokemon and developed original sprites for the pokemon. They also created new sprites for just about every major character and zombie including overworld sprites. While there were some glitches, the graphics were pretty cool. So, the game earned a 9.
Sound: There weren't any noticeable changes to the sound. This game received a 7 just because Hoenn has such a wonderful soundtrack.
Addictiveness: I'm not going to lie. This game was challenging. There were many, many parts of this game where I had no clue what was next. I had to look up guides on the interweb just to find out what to do. Besides that, this game was very addictive. There would be times where I could not put the game down, even with all of the challenges. Because of the constant need to look up help, this received a 9.
***SPOILER ALERT*** Story: This section contains spoilers. Enter at your own risk!!!
So, last review, I basically wrote out the entire storyline. This time, I'm going to cut corners. So basically, you wake up from a building collapsing on you. No one is to be found. You find three pokeballs (to choose your starter). You then find the professor being attacked by a zombie. After saving him, he explains that a zombie apocalypse occurred and that your brother (the champion) and his girlfriend (May) disappeared. You set out to find them. On your journey, you save a dragon's daughter, defeat the four horsemen, and basically fight the government. Towards the end, you defeat the necromancer who started this apocalypse and his underlings. Due to your bravery, you get to go to Gym Island and can even catch that necromancy. A major issue occurs when the game basically ends there. You never do recover your memory and your brother passes on. The end. It was an ending unworthy of the hack. From what I heard, the hack was never completely finished. Nonetheless, the ending doesn't ruin the game (for me anyway) and I gave the story a 9 because the ending was disappointing.
Depth: So, there are many new pokemon (mostly zombie pokemon) and new legendaries to catch, There are also multiple sidequests to be done. However, once you go to Gym Island, the game provides little else to do. So, I think an 8 is a fair score.
Difficulty: For me, I don't find pokemon games difficult at all. In fact, I think they are pretty easy to do speed runs for. However, this game was different. This was one of the most difficult hacks/games that I have ever played. I trained up towards the beginning of the game, but halfway through, I found myself weaker than most trainers. But, I still was able to defeat them. Nonetheless, if you want a good challenge, play this game!
Overall, I played this game a few years ago but never beat it. I finally decided to give it another go. I have been looking forward to review this for some time (and I did so twice). I hope you enjoyed this review. Till next time! Happy gaming!!!
