Peach the Lobster

Peach the Lobster description

Another jewel in our collection – the game not named in any global database. This game is the story. The action takes place in a world called Norumbega, where peacefully coexist the different races. All of them like any earth animals, but anthropomorphic and intelligent. Despite the differences between the inhabitants in most of the lands of harmony. However, in one not good day, master duck Duck Fang (a big white duck in a black cloak and fangs, is slightly reminiscent of the Penguin from Batman comics), armed and creating an army of genetically engineered for each location and soldiers began the conquest of the world. And it so happened that oppose him can only be a single character – an anthropomorphic lobster named Peach. Have Peach'and there is a weapon – but something very strange: this thing looks like a gun but does not kill, but only "fixes" opponents out of sight.

Yes, all this is nonsense, and wild nonsense; on the other hand is interesting, especially because a detailed description of the background events, as well as instructions for the game built into the game itself.

So we're playing for the lobster. His goal on a number of levels representing different worlds and Norumbeg', to deal with various hostile creatures. The game begins in his native land Peach'and polupodpolno, which still resists the invasion of ducks-mutants. The main enemies here – radioactive crabs, a kind of victims of the war, which, despite the small size, kill quickly enough. Subsequently have to deal directly with duck army, which will be normal (for some reason not able to fly) and flying ducks, duck-vampires (!), duck-cavemen, ducks-androids and so on (each correspond to a specific land- as there will, for example, a level consisting entirely of caves, or "technocratic" level).

In the game there are bonuses, but not so much, and the way of obtaining an unusual. To earn points, for example, need to fire their wonder-guns on different monitors (each type will give the shot a different number of points); you can also find a little lobster – each of these solutions will give an extra life.

A distinctive feature of the game – it is the highest difficulty, and not so much in terms of defeating enemies, but in terms of control and understanding of where and, most importantly, how to move forward. The game is controlled by the following (not quite familiar) way: the keys G and H – shooting, respectively, left and right, the left and right arrows – move, up arrow – jump, down arrow – Crouch. For performing a high jump you need to quickly press the up arrow two times; while simultaneously pressing jump and the arrow moves Peach can jump to the side.

The graphics are drawn, utterly adorable, fairly bright, though not very diverse. Verdict – something for collectors and/or biggest fans of any complex examples of the genre.
