Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine Review by: Totts - 9.6/10
This item is a home version of the arcade machine Puyo Puyo, which was conceived by Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) for their own home console. The game idea was acquired completely, and even the graphic design remains the same. It was packed in a nice story about the vile Dr. Robotnik (the villain from Sonic the Hedgehog).
The home planet of Dr. Robotnik, planet Mobius is the setting of the gaming scene. The spiritual Dr. Robotnik has once again made a new invention. With this invention, the bean transformer which is able to transform the funny and lively beans from Beanville mini robot, he hopes to banish the fun and the music of his planet. For this reason, he sends out his robot to catch the beans and cram in a container. At this point the player is now, which has the honourable task to save the beans by it helps them to escape from the tanks. It achieved only when it brings together four beans of the same color. Then can they out locks are namely mysteriously from the tanks. Playfully, it looks like this, that the beans from the top down in groups of three in different colour combinations in your collection containers which occupies half of the pitch, fall off and any shot. You should be always working in one fell swoop now so many beans as possible, because this one injects the opponent who plays in the other tanks at once many black beans. These can then easily be taken and you leak more opponents of these, the own odds are higher. It is too slow so you have to fight soon with umpteen black beans because the opponent leaves nothing untried fill you with black beans. Should the containers are then filled to the brim, you lost the game.
To overcome this not at all easy, you need a rapid response, forward thinking, and you should be able to understand the entire playing field. Stamina it should not lack but also the players, because the individual levels can drag immensely in the length. Only if you have these skills, you will succeed also all robots that are Dr. Robotnik to the page and even Dr. Robotnik himself to defeat and thwart his nasty plans. And even constantly highest concentration is required for the degree of difficulty of the game is pretty high. It is very easily of victory against the first robot it is increasingly difficult to win with every next. The beans are then faster and faster in the tanks, and also each of the robots with its special tactics to work that is always nastier the further you go to thwart your efforts goes. When Dr. Robotnik beans finally almost like raindrops fall so that each smallest error can mean already wide. So you can start not always from scratch there is, fortunately, a password which you can write down but for every level.
All in all is Dr. Robotnik ´s mean bean machine can be completed over evenings and is a very fun and entertaining game. The story mode is very motivating because when you embark on this fun beans rescue operation you get the chance to defeat the Evil Dr. Robotnik once and for all. There is also a fantastic two player mode, having a two player mode is always a great feature in a game, such as this and extends its lifetime limitlessly
Ultimately what really stands out above all is the nice background music, something that tends to lack in the arcade templates and I personally find enchanting.
