Super Mario Frustration (forever) Review by: legacyme3 - 8.7/10
Frustration sets in, and the challenge intensifiesAnother Leggy Review, and this time we focus on the subject of this month's RGR Screenshot Challenge, Super Mario Forever (Frustration).
The game is notorious for how impossible it looks, and how difficult it is, especially compared to the original game on the NES
Graphics- 7
I can't really give it a higher rating, I see 7 as average, and the NES graphics are starting to blend together for me. Not much can be said here.
Sound - 10
I am a fan of the Mario Theme, which I am glad you get to have in it's entirety, the sounds stay true to the original game which it should anyway. I give it the same rating I would give Super Mario Bros. in terms of it's soundboard.
Addictiveness - 10
I usually don't go back to an NES game, so when I do, you know it's worth playing again and again. It's not easy, so it has that challenge factor, and boosts ones adrenaline. This game is worth playing over and over until you can get to the end.
Story- blank
Not too much of a story, it's just a hard game.
Depth - 9
If you don't think this takes a while to beat, you have obviously beaten it numerous times, and can do it in your sleep, or are a liar. It will be the latter in most cases. Even once you beat the game, you have the option to go back into it to beat your time.
Difficulty - 10
This is truly one of the hardest games in terms of challenge. The controls are simple, but the game and execution are hard. I myself have yet to advance past world 1-2, so I personally need to play more.
Overall- 8.7
It's a fun game, it's a hard game, it's a game that many get frustrated over. But more than anything else, it's Mario. I'm a fan of the original, and this is truly a challenge worthy of the best Mario players. Keep in mind I have only gotten past world 1-1 and have yet to bother screenshotting (trying to get the hang of it if i ever try a speed run).
All in all, it's a tough game that everyone should witness.
