The Legend of Kusakari
SCORE: 80
Recently Family Friendly Gaming was provided a digital download code
of The Legend of Kusakari on the Nintendo 3DS. I personally played The
Legend of Kusakari on the Nintendo 2DS so I can not speak to any of the
3D effects. I had fun playing this grass cutting video game, and it made
me think about the condition of the video game industry as a whole.
Different groups with different agendas are pushing for different
things.
There are vocal gamers out there that want brand new experiences.
Numerous companies out there listen to these vocal gamers. Companies are
constantly trying to innovate, put a new twist on, and more. The Legend
of Kusakari is in essence the grass cutting portion of Zelda video
games. There is one major difference in The Legend of Kusakari - you can
not attack the enemies.
In fact enemies and heroes will fight it out on the screen while we are
cutting the grass. This is brilliant in my opinion. We are doing our
job, and not fighting. In fact we need to avoid fighting in The Legend
of Kusakari. Take too much damage and it is game over. Your health also
drains while the level is being played. Blue grass will heal your hearts
and let you play longer. I wonder if that is a clever reference to the
kind of music. Does the developer like bluegrass music?
There are fifty levels in The Legend of Kusakari on the Nintendo 3DS.
The graphics are a bit small, but we are taking about a hand held
system. Bumping into heroes, monsters, or getting in their way fighting
can be bad for the gardeners health. I love being able to avoid violence
in The Legend of Kusakari. I wish more video game companies considered
that game play mechanic.
The music in The Legend of Kusakari is fantastic. It encouraged me to
cut the grass quickly. I learned to be strategic with the blue grass in
The Legend of Kusakari. I only went for it when I needed it. Cutting too
many of them in a row was a waste, and I would fail a level. I am
humbled and honored that I was allowed to play and review The Legend of
Kusakari on the 3DS.
