w enemy territory armed<br />

hwith<br />

a couple of laser rrfles<br />

eand<br />

towing floating grenade<br />

n launchers, you know that<br />

tthere's<br />

trouble brewing.<br />

And indeed there is.<br />

w<br />

o<br />

These two guys are on a<br />

mission to hunt down and de-<br />

d<br />

stroy an evil villain who is plot-<br />

uting<br />

the destruction of the en-<br />

dtire<br />

universe. Between you<br />

eand<br />

him are horizontally<br />

s scrolling levels that are<br />

fpacked<br />

with all sorts of hor-<br />

lribly<br />

aggressive baddies and,<br />

y of course. a huge end of level<br />

creature.<br />

i<br />

When aliens are blasted,<br />

n<br />

they sometimes leave behind<br />

t<br />

blue Zenny, the local cur-<br />

o<br />

rency which can be picked up<br />

and added to the player's<br />

cash total. Occasionally a<br />

shop pops up from underground.<br />

and the two fighters<br />

90<br />

can enter and spend their<br />

dash on the latest weaponry.<br />

better armour or even extra<br />

energy to heal their battle<br />

scars.<br />

Although Forgotten<br />

Worlds is a very slick program<br />

which grabs you instantly<br />

and keeps you playing, it<br />

has two annoying little niggles:<br />

in two-player mode you<br />

have unlimited credits (which<br />

means you can finish it first<br />

go. even if you do gel a pathetic<br />

score), and if you play<br />

one-player, the game is just a<br />

little too easy on the standard<br />

setting. To get a decent challenge<br />

you have to set the difficulty<br />

level on the option<br />

screen to "hard', instead of<br />

'normal'. Why not have<br />

"hard" as the "normal" level<br />

and have the "normal" level<br />

as "easy'. so rubbish players<br />

could switch to it if they get<br />

ippottipik EEEEEEKI<br />

nowhere? Still, the action<br />

isn't ruined by these annoyances,<br />

and as long as you remember<br />

to select the hard difficulty<br />

level when you play,<br />

Forgotten Worlds is a superb<br />

shoot 'em up which should,<br />

keep Megadrive massacre<br />

maniacs more than happy.<br />

A very polished shoot<br />

'em up that Offers plenty<br />

of action and some great<br />

graphics and sounds.<br />

As long as you select<br />

the 'herd' difficulty level<br />

on the Options screen,<br />

it's a demanding blaster<br />

that should keep trigger<br />

happy players very<br />

happy.
