Icarus' Flight Review
By Kerim on

Pros: Stays true to the myth, simple gameplay, good graphics, decent difficulty, great sound effects.
Cons: Aimless, can get boring after awhile.
Great game.
It's a very good game, it doesn't stray too far away from the myth it originates from. I.E. You can't go too high (too close to the sun). The story could be portrayed better in a cutscene because, let's face it, there aren't many people who are going to read...
The graphics and sounds are very well done, especially when he's falling or soaring.
The gameplay is simple to catch on to and understand. It would be nice to have some other things, maybe a barrel roll to avoid a rock or bird.
I do wish it had a goal, though. At this point, it's just fly for points. You should have to go to a certain point, then a cutscene of him going too high and too close to the sun and then him plummeting to the sea.
All in all, very good game. 5/6.
