Power Blade is an action-platformer that was released in Japan as Power Blazer (1990).
+ Levels are intricately designed, and their non-linear layouts encourage you to explore in the hunt for the required key cards.+ Can choose the order in which you tackle the first six stages and there's even a password system to continue your progress.
+ Being able to throw your boomerang in eight directions while jumping is handy for dispatching enemies in tough spots.
+ Managing to locate the Power Suit in each stage is rewarding, as it gives you the tactical benefit of shooting through objects.
+ Includes a wide range of enemies that force you to rethink tactics due to their interesting attack patterns.
- Enemies respawn at an infuriating rate and there is an element of backtracking in order to locate items.
- Character walking animation is rather goofy and the boss battles offer little in the way of resistance.
