4four: The Evil From The Past Reviewed by Lazarus on July 1st, 2004 I actually quite enjoyed "4four: Evil From the Past" even though it was a very short game. I can't say much about the graphics, but the gameplay kept me playing right to the end (it took me 15 miniutes). Presentation  *b)One of the things this game lacks is presentation. The title screen was very bland, featuring only a text object that said "4four: Evil from the Past" and a keyboard controlled menu. The backround was just black. Not much here! It opens with scrolling text that tells the story, which was a nice touch, but it can't hide the rather sad presentation. The game featured a few cut-scenes, but it would have been nice to have dialog boxes instead of plain, floating text dialog. 5/10(50%)
Gameplay:  The gameplay was the saving grace of the game. The game didn't have 'levels,' it was just one big level, sort of like Metroid or Castlevannia. You slowly collected items so that you could access new areas, while fighting baddies and bosses. The engine was very stable and well made. I couldn't find very many bugs in it. 10/10 (100%)
Graphics:  : I wasn't really impressed with the graphics. All of the backrounds were soild colours. I would have liked a few hills in the backround for the forest path, or maybe volcano terrian in the backround for the lava path. The main character was ripped, but the author altered it slightly. I guess I could let that slip...5/10 (52%)
Sound and Music:  I sniggered to myself as I heard the Star Wars theme song. God I hate that move...Anywhoo, some of the music fit the game, but I really think that using music from Sonic the Hedgehog and Star Wars is a big no-no.  4/10 (40%)
Lastability/Overall : This game is far to short, but I guess its the content of the game that matters. In this case, the game itself was okay, but I think it could have had a lot more to it. I beat 4four in 15 minuites... But I think that overall, 4four is a really fun game. Go download it, and enjoy it while it lasts! I have to go get 4four: The Plauge Returns...
