DuckTales Remastered Review will provide you with all the details of the TV Series that became a entertaining game to play.
The factory Disney has for decades been a benchmark for creating cartoons. Characters like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Pluto Goofie or have been just some of the characters that have helped make the U.S. company in a gold mine that it is now. Indeed, the star of DuckTales Remastered, Uncle Scrooge , duck feathers love to filthy lucre, as was evident in the television series DuckTales, what we remember.
In the late 80s and early 90s, licenses Disney gave rise to a handful of exceptional games. Titles like Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse, Aladdin or The Lion King remain in the minds of the age of 8 to 16 bits, when the platforms were the favorite genre of the companies, sublimated into two referents as Mario and the plumber Sonic hedgehog. In those early days of philosophy mountebank, one of the first stars was Scrooge McDuck, who, in 1989, starred in DuckTales , NES game directed by Keiji Inafune, one of the most visible faces of Capcom a few years ago.
In the game, inspired by the TV series, Uncle Scrooge was traveling through different landscapes in search of lost treasures series, while helping your staff to hopping everywhere and defeat few enemies will come out their way. Twenty-five years later, we’re in luck, especially those who grew up watching this millionaire and his associates. Fortunately, Capcom has decided to make a “remake” of the game of NES and the baton has given the studio WayForward to move to digital platforms PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U and PC. On August 13 the PC version comes out and on the 14 for the PS3, and 15, the Nintendo console. The Microsoft machine will have to wait until September 11.
DuckTales Remastered starts right after the Beagle Boys access vault Scrooge McDuck for desplumarle. The alarm goes off and the protagonist goes quickly to avoid being robbed of their gold doubloons, which has been so eagerly seeking. However, what the above look chubby is a document that is hidden behind a painting and know whose existence Scrooge. He quickly realizes that it is a treasure map and embarks on the adventure, with the goal of adding five new relics to their already glitzy jewelry collection: the scepter of King Inca, the currency of the Lost Kingdom, the diamond giant the Center of the Earth, the lost crown of Genghis Khan and blue cheese longevity.
The game features a 2D platformer development . There are jumps currents, but the key is to use a cane, which not only allows bounce and wider leaps but also throwing objects or descalabrar break things enemies. In general, look for a series of objects on the stages, such as coins, pieces of a document, elevator or key parts of a rotor. Once in our hands, we can access the final boss of each level. Occasionally, he also plays save Scrooge’s nephews and Rosita, who’s curiosity gets them into more of a mess.
In total, there are seven levels : an introductory, five major that can be overcome in any order and an epilogue. Each usually lasts about 15-20 minutes, at the end, we expect as a totem creatures alive, a witch with airs of a vulture, a relative of the Yeti or a giant rodent. Everyone has their routines, but once learned, it is easy to give them the vital settlement.
The basis of the title is the same as in NES . That is, Scrooge movements, types of enemies and the scenarios are already met in 1989. But some sections have been redesigned and, although still challenging, is slightly mitigated the difficulty. At first, we have three lives and three heart containers, so that if we lose the three opportunities, tap restart levels from scratch, unable to continue infinitely often as in many current games supported by the test formula- mistake. As we progress, we can expand the number of heart containers, which makes it all the more affordable. In addition, we seek to Mrs. Beakley, which is hidden somewhere in each scenario, to grant us an extra life and we fill the blood bar.
The enemies are varied and affect directly in gameplay. There are carnivorous plants on which you can not skip, the invincible ghosts no choice but to dodge, skeletons that run, duck suits and ice hockey players, mountain goats, ducks Humor and mummified.
DuckTales Remastered is a game that has been redone from scratch. Capcom has already demonstrated its ability to reconstruct adapted to Gamecube games. A while now, have proliferated HD versions of many games. Companies have seen a reef in the proposal and, often, it would be necessary to take a magnifying glass and the services of Sherlock Holmes to see if you notice any difference between the original title and the supposed release date.
Not the case the game at hand, which has been renovated from top to bottom. The pixels of NES have been a real facelift , which has led to the temporal paradox that, instead of having wrinkles, Uncle Scrooge looks younger than twenty-four years. The graphic is an explosion of color. For one, the characters, hand-drawn look great. Furthermore, the scenarios presented some designs, a structure and a very varied. The bank , the Amazon , the castle in Transylvania , the African Mines , the Himalayas, the Moon and Mount Vesuvius have nothing to do with each other. Not the same move in the jungle by a volcano or a frozen mountain, and that the game reflects it perfectly. Similarly, attention-grabbing lighting effects, such as flares and lightning falling from the sky in the level of Transylvania.
One of the strengths of DuckTales Remastered is its faithfulness to the television series. First, are the characters. Not only are the Scrooge McDuck and his nephews, but also the aviator Joe, Gyro, Bernard Butler, Bubba, Robopato, Isidoro Dorado, Magic Spell … Secondly, do not miss the plane icons like Joe or pool of currencies of Scrooge, in which the protagonist can take a dip in and out “spitting” coins, as done in the series opener.
