Hi-Tech Expressions, Inc. developed a DOS game in the year 1993 called Beethoven's 2nd. In the video game ranking, this game ruled the charts for a very long time. You can now play it again online by clicking here.
Arcade game on motives of a known Comedy film – of course, not about the great composer, but about the very big and good for a Saint Bernard that is its namesake. Story – the stolen four puppies, a mother in sorrow, and your character as a real hero, father and husband needs to get his kids back.
The action will take place on city streets, the gameplay is a platformer with a side view. Puppies need to look for consistently and then lead into the house. Dangers include catchers of stray dogs, vicious cats, skateboarders, who are unable to move in on us (literally, not metaphorically), and, oddly enough, acorns, which can fall from the tree and beat Beethoven on the head. To bite, to lash out and do other things he can't – the game is in fact children's. So the way to deal with the enemy only two: either to snarl at them that, at some time, will force them to retreat (hold key longer than bark pinned, the stronger we will be frightened), or, if near the water (open hose), you can wet yourself, and then shake in the vicinity of the enemy, which will knock him down. To restore health in the game there are bonuses.
After finding a puppy it is necessary to deliver a home that is an even bigger challenge than the quest, because the enemies on the way back, not going anywhere, and we still have to watch your son (or daughter). Puppies are unable to move on their own, but many obstacles to overcome can't (they have to move through them in the teeth) and, of course, to defend against enemies can not in any way.
Graphically, the game looks very good and somewhat unusual (in the first place – because of the large and very clear drawing of the characters). Save not at all – the game will have to pass from beginning to end. Verdict – very nice and really good platforming, perfect for children and adults alike, so it is recommended not only to fans of the film, but all fans of such games.
