A colorful side-scrolling shooter starring Jim Power, the fictitious daring sci-fi hero, Jim Power gets high marks for its vibrant graphics, great level design, and challenging enemies that are quite capable of dodging your shots. Loriciels lives up to their reputation as one of France’s best action game makers in this one– the game is chock full of goodies, including some non-standard power-ups such as shields, homing missiles, and upgradable laser. The action is fast, furious, and generally fun, although not as addictive as the best in the genre (e.g. Gradius). The game is definitely worth a play-through, but is not a must-have.
