Publisher: Taito
Released: 1991
Toki is an action-platformer that was first released in the Arcade in 1989.
+ Ample chances to power-up and while the 1992 Atari Lynx / Sega Genesis ports had one-hit kills this game adds a health bar.
+ Solid controls and your ability to fire diagonally opens up your attack arsenal and protects you from airborne enemies.
+ Cool stage intros resemble Ghosts 'n Goblins (1986, NES) and the gigantic bosses are enjoyable to fight.
- As a lead character, Toki is lacking in personality and charm, especially when compared to Bonk (Turbografx-16).
- Often has severe sprite flicker that distracts, and although there's a wide range of enemies they're rather unimaginative.
- Minecart section in the finale is laden with funky jumping physics and the collision detection takes a nosedive.
