Game of the Week Club

Very strange and interesting music in some of the levels. Still haven't finished but was worth trying out again. Thanks for the reminder!

This week:

W-RING (THE DOUBLE RINGS)






Next week: Volfied

OK, who wants to sell me both of these HuCards? I'm serious.

I like this game. The design is quite unusual for a PCE shooter. It sometimes looks like a european computer game from the late 1980's or early 1990's. The ship and other sprites are rather small but in general I find it not too bad visually. The weaponry is not bad either.
On the downside, the game is wayyy too easy.

Yep, I noticed that some of the graphics were almost Amiga-like in their shading in places.

I love both this game and next week's.  I think next week's will have me turning on the turbo again- be nice to see how far people can get in Volfied...

i like w-rings level layout and the general feel of it.  Its control is pretty smooth and the action is fluid.   The galloping music makes it even funner.  Its the envy of every Amiga shooter.

Plus the over abundance of blue in some levels is nice (like the screen shot).  I like blue in games!

its volfiev.  tard



whats not to like about this game.  Its colorful, addicting, and obnoxious.  If you like these kind of games ...

[shubibiman]

Addicting is the word. I love the concept of the Qix games. This one is no exception to the rule.

It reminds me of that good ol' JezzBall for Win3.1

Man was that a kick ass game.

[exodus]

addictive is the word. addicting, meanwhile, is a colloquialism.

[shubibiman]

I knew there was a mistake somewhere.   

[Arkhan]

who needs grammar when we have volfiev

[Necromancer]

its volfiev.  tard

Speaking of 'tards.... it's VolfieV.  Get it right.

I like Volfied, but I find that the nature of the game puts an upper limit on how fun it can be. When I first played it, I found myself just rushing to fill the screen and that didn't work out too well. Carefully planning to get the pods in the hope of a time-stopper is the way to go. Graphics are OK but sound is disappointing with no music as you play. I think the game would have benefitted greatly from a password system (assuming there are a lot of levels), but it's still fun in short bursts - I would have liked to have seen a CD version with more interesting backgrounds and some nice music tracks.
