Space Hulk for Sega Saturn is a very odd game. I stopped playing it after about 30 seconds because it kept switching between 2 different screens (a map/radar and a real time interface) and I began to feel dizzy. The meat of the game is wondering through corridors trying to avoid or kill large snarling dog like aliens. The graphics are ok for the platform but the movement is very stiff and uncoordinated. I did not give it much of a chance so this is about as far as my review can go.
This game is based of the popular pen and paper RTS Warhammer 40,000 following the story of the space marines Blood Angels and the Genestealers. The game is a first person shooter, a little tactical actually. The game uses the DOOM engine or a modified buld of it with very well done sprite animations. So the graphics are actually petty decent for the time. The game is mostly about luck rather than skill. If a genestaler is behind you, there is no way to turn around and shoot it in time. Then there is the close combat sitsuations where there is a 70% chance of getting killed. The audio is pretty good and your teamates will alert you if they are under attack or an enemy is stalking you. The map screen and directing your troops when you get promoted is a mess. Your men will pretty much do what they want rather thando what they're told. The game overall is pretty good and will take you a while to beat it. If you're a fan of warhammer you'll like this game even more.Read full review
