The orginal Wonderboy is one of the first games i ever played along with Alex Kidd so I downloaded this to experiece some classic gameplay again. Here goes my review...

Presentation:
Like Fire said, the game lacks any menu screen so not much can be said about the presentation of the game. However the interface of the game is decent and does the job nicely.

Gameplay:
The game is pretty fun and is pretty similar to the old Wonderboy games. My main gripe with this is the slow down when walking. What is going on there...?Anyway this game has potential to be very good if save points are implemented to stop frustration and maybe some original ideas were used.

Graphics:
The graphics are original but remain in the Wonderboy style which is a good thing. They are all pretty well animated and do the job well. I havn't noticed any major problems with them.

Sound and music:
Well there isnt any so can't say much other than music needs to be put in!

Lastability:
This depends on how much patience you have. The average person will die once and will reach for the Alt+F4 keys pretty quickly. If save points were in the game then I would have gotten past the first boss.

Overall:
Wonderboy bobi has done a good job at making a fan game which reamins nearly as fun as the original ones. The presentation needs to be fixed up, the game needs music, the slow down needs to be removed and save points need to be added to improve this game. Otherwise this game has a lot of potential if these changes are added.
