Post Description
This Mini reminds me of the PS1’s Rampage World Tour (though the Rampage series started in the arcade, I wasn’t able to play the first title because I was not even born yet), in which you control a gigantic monster and wreak havoc on major cities. WackyLands Boss, however, is set in the medieval era, with all the knights, the princesses, the castles and the ninjas.
Yes, WackyLands Boss has a tongue-in-cheek approach to its storytelling, with a lot of ridiculous things going on in all directions. Though there are some corny attempts at humor, the ones that hit the mark hit it really well.
The gameplay is easy to learn. You are to traverse a level across a 2D plane with hordes and hordes of enemies. Left and right directional buttons make your monster move…well, left and right, respectively. You can roll around with the shoulder buttons in both directions. Though rolling is primarily used for defensive purposes, it can be utilized to initiate offense, too. Square is for light attacks, and X is for heavy attacks.
