Description A RPG featuring insects, arachnids, and crustaceans. Although its size is quite large (108 KB); it has good graphics, runs quickly and smoothly, and is quite long. Written mostly in BASIC with a few assembly programs to speed it up.

COMMENTS

Everyone loves a good RPG. But why go out and spend $50 for a game when you have War of the Arthropods? Seriously, this game is highly entertaining, extremely difficult, and has all of the core values of a good RPG. A gameplay flaw however, is after you beat the “Max Lobster” (final boss) the game quits. I fixed up the program so I can still explore the game afterwards. Also, I find it annoying that enemies with Dive can repeatedly use it without giving you a turn. You can do the same with Super Jump, but you need to be a high level to get that move, and since it uses 15 AP, the number of times you can use it repeatedly is very low.
