Mars Quest

If you are a fan of quirky retro games then you will love this. The game itself is a remake of a 1980’s game which was made for the C64. It was a very popular game back then so it is great to see a remake of it now. Download app here!
Immediately I was blown away with the clever graphics of this game. They stuck to the true genre of the original game with the graphics they used and I felt I really was playing an old school game. The graphics in addition to the writing used were very similar to that of the original game.
The aim of the game involves the player taking on the role of an astronaut, complete in space man outfit, and try to get him from stage to stage without coming to any harm. The game can be quite testing and in addition to trying to get a high score the player has to keep the astronaut safe by keeping out of the way of various different aliens and obstacles which try and get in his way.
In order to succeed the player will need to think quite strategically in order to succeed and progress to the next stage. At first I found the game quite manageable but as the game progresses going from stage to stage they started to increase in speed making them much harder. Mars Quest Review
