DeVuego BD - Base de Datos del Videojuego Español

For those that love arcade games, Galacticon deserves to be part of your library.  Maybe one day we will see Galacticon get its own cabinet and sit among its older relatives in the comfort of the nearest barcade.

Lambs on the Road is a bit of a mixed bag.  The pixel art is strong and adequately displays the post-apocalyptic setting.  The puzzles, although simple, help to shift focus away from the surprises which helps support the horror aspects of the game.  I am pleasantly surprised at how the developers managed to create a side scrolling horror game through the simplicity of misdirected focus.  However, those moments of fright often become insta-death situations leading to tedious repetition of segments of the game because of the infrequent checkpoints.  This could be mitigated by either more checkpoints or better usage of the health meter John has.  It is unclear why John has three health points when every attack depletes his health completely.  Plus, the repetition extends what is already an incredibly short game.  Despite its shortcomings, Lambs on the Road was still an entertaining experience for me.  If this is indeed an episodic experience, hopefully those shortcomings will be addressed to make the game an even better as we complete John’s adventure to save his daughter Mary.
