Reviews for Gerry Anderson's UFO (#32182)

Review by YOR on 01 Nov 2020 (Rating: 2)

I was quite intriged when I saw this and was willing to give it a go and hoping I'd like it, but no it disappointed me greatly. It's essentially a three part battle between SHADO (you) and the UFOs and the first to 50 points win or if it's 49 all the first to 51. The first part is weird, like you have to lift off but can't fire and you lose them all quickly and that's it next sequence begins, almost as if that is part of the game and it really confused me. The second is one of wonder, moving around until a UFO suddenly appears and kills you, like what how was I supposed to know it was there? Then another one appeared, it disappeared and I score the point, what? Weird stuff. The third is a standard shooter only I didn't last too long at that either, then the sequence of events is looped over. What a bloody bizarre game, well suppose UFO was a bit bizarre to begin with so points for emulating that, but you just seem to die too quickly without much of a chance. Very odd and not to my liking. When or if I get round to getting the hang of it better I will make some edits over time, but other than that not the best offering from AGD it has to be said.
