Although it merits some consideration for its early foray into the full motion video, interactive movie genre, Night Trap is dreadful in terms of sheer gameplay, which involves monitoring the activity in various rooms of a mansion (by toggling between cameras) and activating traps whenever vampire-like creatures appear. The objective is to protect six girls (including Dana Plato of Different Strokes fame) from attack. Following the mystery storyline clues players into where and when the attacks will occur, but the "action" nonetheless feels like a guessing game more often than it should. The visuals are grainy, but the soundtrack and voices are pretty decent. Overall, this is a groundbreaking (if overly short) game, but it won't lure you into its trap.

  • Buck Bumble

    Argonaut's Buck Bumble has the look and feel of a first generation Nintendo 64 game that missed its boat. Simply put, the game is a mission-based, character-driven adventure/shooter that attempts to ape the Super Mario 64 world, but ends up making a bit of a monkey of itself instead.
    Buck Bumble is a big game, no doubt about it. There are 20 missions of varying size and depth (some longer and more complicated, some shorter and time-reliant), but all of them are rather frustrating, with the exception of the boss levels, which can actually be quite challenging and fun. The gameplay is linear, so you work your way through each level by utilizing teleporters and destroying generators to open Herd Gates that lead to the next area you need to visit. The problem with the way the missions are set up is that your progress means little unless you finish the mission with just one life. You can save the game once a mission is completed and you do have three bees to beat the game with, however, if you die, you start at the beginning of the mission, and all of your progress is lost.
