Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The cutscene animations are obviously low-resolution, but the art style saves it and it still holds up for a game that's almost 20 years old.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
My personal bias on this game is rather high considering I played this game a lot when I was younger, but bias aside, I honestly think this game is worth a try for its unique style and addictive gameplay
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is a SUPER THROWBACK and gave me so many laughs as I shook my head at the music I liked back when this came out.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story is exceptional, youll find that you inherited a vast fortune and its up to you and the Dr. of Science and Partying.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This means it's very comofrtable to play the game with a controller, but it can feel clunky with mouse and keyboard, at least when it comes to the minigames.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But Thrillville can serve as a great co-op experience between family and friends, something the previously mentioned games are sorely lacking.
