In MSX Zone you can explore the Spanish games preserved for this computer family. If you no longer own the original hardware, emulation lets you rediscover them on current systems.
Searching and researching in the romset I always find myself with quite strange things... sometimes they have something of quality and others, the most frequent, I find absolute mediocrities. This one, being from Mind Games Spain, already alerted me that what I was going to find once I loaded it was not going to be very pleasant ... and in this case my intuition has not failed.
Searching the net I did not find much, but at No. 48 of the Msx Club this reviewed game came. The first thing that caught my attention was that they had only given him a score of 6, which considering that traditionally these magazines used to be quite soft with their ratings, all the alarms confirmed without stopping that I was going to face a chestnut championship pilonga.
Since we started the game we have already found the "made in Mind Games" slot since there is no menu to select absolutely anything and if we press the spacebar, they let us loose like a runaway miura onto the battlefield.
Markers are quite rare. We have a score counter for each tank we destroy and 4 lives (mark 3, but 0 counts). We have to control the cannon from right to left while the alleged tank is moving forward without stopping, although if we backward we can slow down a bit, which I highly recommend since otherwise we will last approximately 5 seconds.
At the bottom of the screen will appear tanks that move to the sides and we have to kill as many of them as possible with our shots. The only danger we encounter is that we will have to overcome dangerous obstacles along the way. So at first it may sound an easy task but between the speed it takes and the objects that seem to have a magnet to impact our vehicle, lasting more than a minute will be an odyssey.
And it has nothing else ... it is simple like the mechanism of a pacifier. That if, eye to what the analysis said the Msx Club about the same
“The graphic level is acceptable and the sound is poor, but in keeping with the objective of the game. FOR LOVERS OF WARFUL ADVENTURES ".
And they would have been so comfortable after saying this ...

Por olvidar se les ha olvidado hasta poner el Game Over o Juego Terminado cuando eliminan a todos los tanques y te llevan directamente a la pantalla de inicio. Sin poder ver siquiera que puntuación conseguiste. Ésto igual no importaría en otro tipo de juego pero en un juego de "vueltas" donde el único motivo que te puede animar a jugar más de 3 o 4 veces es superar tu puntuación, o la de otra persona que juegue a ésto, pues resulta imperdonable. Sobre los elementos que aparecen bruscamente para terminar contra nuestro ¿tanque? pues, como bien se da a entender en la reseña, no se pueden esquivar de una manera intuitiva. Hay que fijarse por donde aparecen por primera vez esos elementos y memorizar ya de antes por donde caerán. Con práctica se puede superar y tiene un pase aunque jugablemente le reste puntos. En general, da la sensación más bien de estar ante una demo técnica más que un videojuego en sí.
