Reviews for Navy SEALs (#3371)

Review by p13z on 09 Jun 2013 (Rating: 5)

A late 128k only shooter from Ocean, which is rather good.
The game is split into two parts, which on the one hand makes for good variety and value, but on the other, makes it a bit disjointed. The first part is platform based, and the second is more of a sideways scroller with perspective play area. Graphics are good and large, and the use of colour is tasteful and well handled for a Speccy. The sounds and music are top quality.
Overall, a great game, better than most of this type on the Speccy.

Why can't these guys climb ladders very well? Oh well, it doesn't matter I suppose. This is a very tricky shooter from Ocean which is actually pretty decent. There's some good ideas like the way the guards bodies remain on the floor after you've killed them. No respawning enemies here! That was pretty novel at the time. The graphics are nice and there's an assortment of weapons. All in all a very decent effort.

A very good Ocean production from the late years (1991), a official game of the film starring Charlie Sheen which proves that not all film-licences games are bad.

You are in command of a SEAL team with two dangerous missions:

- Rescue an helicopter crew in Oman
- Destroy a group of Stinger missiles in Beirut.

First mission is plattform style with a cool infiltration component. Avoid and kill guards, find hidden weapons and detonate bombs through five levels: harbour, communications tower, barracks, the prison and finally escape from port.

Second mission is a simple shooter in an entangled Beirut facing dozens of guards, tanks,... and you'll come across Ali, an spy that will help you give some useful info.

A great game with good graphics and excellent 128k sounds and music.
