Crazy Train
SCORE: 80
I am very thankful Family Friendly Gaming was provided a download
code for Crazy Train on the Nintendo DSi. This game is on the Nintendo
eShop for the Nintendo 3DS. I really get into puzzle games like Crazy
Train. This downloadable only hand held video game has us move trains
from place to place. Well technically the trains move of their own
accord. We have to make sure the two trains do not meet.
You remember the old Algebra question right? Two trains leaving from
different cities, moving at different speeds, where do they meet? Of
course the right answer is we never want them to meet because that would
be an accident with a loss of life. Crazy Train teaches that lesson
really well. Trains in this game move at different speeds. They also
have different lengths.
The graphics are small in Crazy Train, but that is to be expected. The
music is nice. The artwork is okay. The main character in the story mode
sure seems to be frightened. There is a Story Mode, Challenge Mode, and
Tutorial in Crazy Train. Do not expect to breeze through levels in Crazy
Train. The difficulty comes from how many trains we need to get from the
left of the screen to the right of the screen without incident.
What makes Crazy Train even more difficult is the colors. We have to get
the blue trains in a certain part of the screen, and the red trains in
the other part of the screen. How the trains come out must be random.
Which means at times the player does not need to do anything for the
trains to get to the right depot. Other times we need to change the
directional arrows on the screen.
I had fun playing Crazy Train. I would like to see a physical copy
release of Crazy Train in the future. Maybe on one of those physical
copy for indie programs we have written about. I hope to see sequels to
Crazy Train in the future. This game works marvelously well on the
Nintendo DSi, and Nintendo 3DS thanks to the stylus. The $1.99 price tag
is inviting to frugal gamers.
