Zoop is poop...
Damn right I just said that. Why? Zoop was a puzzle game that tried to do something new which isn't a bad thing. What IS a bad thing is the puzzle game revolves around you playing a triangle gun thing shooting at shapes that are the same color as your gun. If the object/shape you're shooting is a different color than your gun, you just swap colors with the shape you shot so you can shoot other shapes. As the game progresses, the objects become faster and faster and stack closer to your gun. If the colored objects stack into your little 4x4 play area, you're dead.
At least with Tetris it's revealed that scoring a Tetris is eliminating 4 lines in a single hit. With Zoop there's no rhyme or reason short of feeding on us poor 90s kids with short attention spans and sugar highs. "Look kids! You're shooting things for no reason at all! And the title is a mde up word that is totally rad! Buy this not later this week, not tonight, right f***ing now!!!" Now I understand that this is meant to be just a simple puzzle game , but if I'm gonna be shooting stuff I'd rather be kicking ass in RoboCop vs. The Terminator or Wolfenstein or Contra or Quake II... ANYTHING BESIDES ZOOP!!! Therefor Zoop gets 2 out of 5 sugar highs!... Now where'd I put my 7th cup of coffee? | |
