Reviews for Judge Dredd (#2648)

Review by Alessandro Grussu on 11 Nov 2011 (Rating: 3)

The hardest Judge of all roams around the streets of Mega City One in search of villains and perps to be arrested or terminated on the spot, accordingly to the crime they have committed.

Once you arrive to the scene of a crime you must guide Dredd to face the villain by running and jumping up and down various sets of platforms, avoiding killing innocent bystanders and using droids as cover when you are shot at. Some criminals will raise their arms up just by telling them to stop or by shooting a blank cartridge. Others will require different kinds of ammunition - you've got the usual Lawgiver gun choice of normal, incendiary, ricochet, explosive and armour piercing (in different quantities). If you have run out of ammo you can even use your fists, but they are not very effective.

On the whole, the game looks not bad (although some color choices for the backdrops are questionable at best) and plays pretty well for a while, but it gets repetitive in the long run since once you've figured out how to negotiate every particular block, you won't have much of a challenge - missions are pretty much the same altogether.

A fast split-screen platformer with colourful backgrounds and confused action that didn't convince me completely.
2,5/5
