After numerous tries, this reviewer was unable to reach the next levels of Piccadilly, Big Ben, Royal Museum and the Underground, just to name a few.Īfter about an hour of continuous play, Domino developed a nasty case of green fringe on his poor little ears while in Regent Park and began sporting brown paint-like spots on his face when in Toy Store.īeyond these obvious glitches, though, the game will continuously challenge and delight. While there is no real difficulty getting through the first level of Regent Park, the second level of Toy Store is seemingly impossible to complete using only a keyboard. Usually movements need to be both precise and quick and keyboarding doesn't offer a sufficient level of control for the more challenging stages. While you can make the pups move faster by making them tumble and run, the movements are clumsy enough to make this option viable only in areas where finesse isn't needed. Protagonist pups get clobbered by toys left and right as you furiously keystroke to make them slowly turn around, bark, hop and run to outwit their enemies, rescue imprisoned puppies and gobble bones for strength. The first of two big drawbacks, though, is the lack of on-screen response generated by using only keyboard controls (gamepad is recommended), which results more in frustration than challenge. Despite having to conquer mean toys, however, the game is benign enough to satisfy parents who abhor violence, as barking is the most violent act the puppies perform to eliminate their enemies. The easiest levels provide a challenge to beginners, so a certain amount of coordination is required, and new levels and new surprises will continually challenge even the most skilled computer gamers. Whichever of the two pups you choose to control trots through a myriad of actual London locations as he destroys Cruella's army of toys and rescues crated comrades. Great colors, evil expressions and sinister sounds add to the ominous feel of their "presence" and provide real chills as they come up behind Domino - "Oh, no, turn around quick and bark to destroy the toy before you get clobbered, Domino!" Truly exciting, "chilling" fun for children.
Cruella De Vil and her menacing computerized toys are out to destroy Oddball or Domino before they can rescue the pups.
Disney's 102 Dalmatians is a wonderfully challenging program with superb graphics and sound that'll keep you on your toes.
