Review of Tiny Toon Adventures

Yes, I have talked about this game before, but not in detail. The story beind the game is that Montana Max has kidnapped Babs Bunny and Buster Bunny decides to rescue her. There are 6 different stages with three sub-stages in each (except 5 and probably 6 which are only one stage each). Before the start of each main stage, you get to pick a character from the three below:

Plucky Duck, Dizzy Devil, and Furball (I remembered all but Furball). Shirley the Loon tells you to pick a character and they will help you on your way. Each character has their own advantages.

Plucky Duck flies, kinda like the princess from Super Mario Bros. 2. I use this character for all the stages except three and six. Being able to fly, especially on stage five, is very helpful.

Furball can climb up walls, which is very helpful when you're about to fall down a crack. I use this character on stage three to climb up all the trees as shown above.

Dizzy Devil spins around for a brief period of time, killing anything in sight. The only time I find this character useful is in stage six. Mind you, I have never beaten this game, but in stage six there are a ton of spikes to go through and I can't imagine using any other character to get through them.

This game overall is fairly simple. Stage four gives me some trouble and I cannot pass stage six, but the rest of the stages I can breeze through without trouble. In fact, at the end of stage one I can be maxed out on lives (which unfortunately is only nine, but the game has unlimited continues). I have attempted to beat this game on several occasions, but stage six gets me so angry that I can only continue so many times before I throw my controller.

The second part of each stage you have to go up against Elmyra. All you need to do is avoid touching her and wait for the exit to appear. You run around different platforms and such, with each time you going against her getting more difficult. They are pretty easy though.

I came across this bonus stage once when dying on Elmyra's stage on accident. I have only seen it this one time  and did not pass it. You have to jump on those Storm Trooper looking guys to jump on the Darth Vader looking Montana Max (which is conventiently names Duck Vader). I'm not too sure what happens if you beat this, but according to Wikipedia you will gain three lives, which would be useless if you already have the maximum amount of lives.

Through most of the stages you can collect carrots. During the stages you can find a random door that will take you a "bonus" stage. If you enter that door with multiples of thirty carrots on hand, Hampton will give you an extra life.

And yes, I have seen this screen waaaay too many times thanks to stage six being ridiculously hard for me. Someday I will pass this game, but for now it needs to go on the shelf before I destroy it, literally.
