An early take at the twin-stick shooting dynamic, Forgotten Worlds offers a lot of the features of its contemporaries including cheesy dialogue and bad translations. The story makes no sense, the protagonists are over-the-top macho dudes on a mission to save the universe and exterminate everything, and the action is well-paced, although it becomes frustratingly hard and unbearable towards the end of the game.

The sprite work in the game is great, with background and level bosses shining up high. Gameplay becomes a bit tiring since the twin-stick concept is not refined and enough to keep a good level of attention on behalf of the player.

I was expecting this game to be more wasteland and machine backgrounds but this game really caught me off-guard with the very beautiful sprite work. the shop system is cool but the game starts droughting the currency as you progress and I'm not too content knowing that I'm probably supposed to be saving up all the early game zenny for a more optimal experience.
