Released: 1992
Toki: Going Ape Spit is an action-platformer and an enhanced version of the 1989 Arcade original.
+ Great level design with a nice assortment of enemies, environmental hazards and stage verticality to mix things up.+ Fans of the Arcade original will find plenty to enjoy here thanks to the expanded levels that now span three areas each.
+ Solid controls and your ability to fire diagonally opens up your attack arsenal and protects you from airborne enemies.
+ Offers lots of customisation options in terms of lives, difficulty, points needed for extended play, and continues.
- Relies heavily on trial-and-error due to blind leaps of faith and enemies lurking just outside of your peripheral vision.
- Toki's movements are painfully slow, and the maze-like underwater level and Stage 7's sludge don't help matters.
- Graphics are dark and desaturated, and Toki is lacking in personality and charm compared to Bonk (Turbografx-16).
