Amazing Maze

The graphics aren't morbidly ugly, but aren't very good. The decision to go with a 3/4th perspective was disappointing. I would also like to point out that everything about this game is ridiculously small. The sound is pretty bad and the music is not very catchy.
The game-play is very complicated in my opinion. The two platform design may have sounded cool when the unknown developer was designing it, but the end result is a complicated mess and that is something a Pac-Man style puzzle game should not be.

The chances of you playing this in the arcade are at zero percent, but finding it on an emulator shouldn't be that difficult. At least give it a shot, it will make you appreciate Pac-Man that much more.
Graphically, this game is pretty good. Everything is well presented, with some good detail on the furnishings inside the buildings. There's nothing by way of "pretty scenery" here (as in, beautiful outdoorsy vistas). It's mostly warehouses and other types of buildings. Considering the futuristic cityscape setting and the locales our hero visits, it's all well done. And considering that this is an 8-bit portable system, these are some impressive graphics for an isometric view. The hero and his enemies are all well animated. Gunfire takes the form of rapid-fire bullets, laser beams, and bursts of energy in blue and green.
Explosions and flame from the flame-thrower are properly fiery. This is a pretty good-looking game. It's a solid game that offers hours of game-play, intricate labyrinths to navigate, some tricky situations to deal with, and plenty of entertaining secrets to discover. It's not perfect, but its strengths outweigh its weaknesses.
Sound effects are also pretty good. A good variety of explosions, laser fire, automatic weapons fire... By Game Gear standards, the effects here are mostly well above average. The machine gun effect sounds rather wimpy, but that's not a weapon that gets a whole lot of use (it's the weakest weapon in the game).
The rest of the effects here are standard fare. Blips and bleeps accompany the grabbing of a med kit or activation of a wall switch. A low hum of machinery as a door opens.
