DOWN
AND DIRTY REVIEWS: COLECOVISION
It's a shame this system only
lasted two years. People really remember the games here.
The scores are out of 100
SCORE / NAME
54 ANTARTIC ADVENTURE (Konami, 1993)
A first generation 3D action game with cartoony looks. Guide
a little penguin across different countries. A fun game and looks just the arcade
game to.
For
1 or 2players.
graphics:
7
sound: 5
gameplay: 4
32 BC QUEST FOR TIRES: GROG'S REVENGE
39
COSMIC AVERAGER
A weak shooter that goes on forever. It is kinda cool when you can bomb and
shoot to though.
For 1 or 2players.
graphics: 4
sound: 2
gameplay: 4
02
DAM BUSTERS
I really hate these 3D shooters.
43 DONKEY KONG (Nintendo, 1992)
An not so great arcade translation of the ColecoVision pack in game. Some of
the animations are missing and the levels are editted differently. The Atari7800
and NESversions are better.
For 1 or 2players.
graphics: 4
sound: 3

BEST COLECOVISION GAME!!
70 FROGGER (Parker
Brothers, 1983)
A great version of the road crossing, home searching arcade hit.
It even has the cool classic music included. A must for any Colecovision owner.
For 1 or 2players.
graphics: 5
sound: 7
gameplay: 6
56
LADY BUG
You can't get the real Pac Man for Colecovision but at least
you can get this bug based maze game.
21
LOOPING
What's the point of this stupid shooting game??
59
MOUSE TRAP
For 1 or 2players.
graphics: 4
sound: 3

MR. DO (Universal, 1983)
A little slow but it's a merely ok version of the arcade game.
For 1 or 2players.
graphics: 4
sound: 4
gameplay: 5
SECOND OPINION!!
I thought Mr. Do was HORRIBLE on Colecovision. The music was
WRONG, Mr.Do was WRONG, and they changed the rules of the game. "Get Ready Player
1?" What's that?
