Time Gal is a perfect conversion of the 1985 Taito arcade game!
In this Full Motion Video (FMV) game you get to play as mankind's
last hope: Time Gal! In a distant future the evil Luda has stolen a time
machine and is trying to alter past time lines to change the balance of
power in his period and become the undisputed ruler. So far, so insane,
so bad, but Time Gal has the ability to jump through time herself by
using her time crystal! She is hot on Luda's trail through the past, the
present and the future!
Time Gal is your basic Dragon's Lair-type game: actions are the four directions (up,
down, left, right), a sword or laser button (depending on the situation
- all six buttons can be tapped) and the time jump (pressing and holding
any one of the six action buttons). When the time jump menu pops up
you'll have to pick the correct destination or you'll die.
There are 16 levels from the ancient Jurassic age, through the Stone
age, old Roman history, the year 666, the era of piracy, through World War I and II
and into the near and distant space-age-future. Action is non-stop and
fairly easy to follow but it does get pretty darn challenging later on!
Graphics are arcade perfect and fluent and switching between the
various scenes is very smooth. A nice contrast to the disappointing
conversions on SEGA-CD and Saturn! Sound is good but not of the richness
as other LaserActive titles. Still, it adds to the game and helps with
the overall gameplay.
Time Gal is one of the rarest LaserActive titles out there and its
rarity combined with arcade-perfect gameplay make this a must-have
disc! |
