Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
Ten years ago on the SNES, this game was quite a gem to have. Most video games based off movies aren't good. Most of them are, in fact, horrible. However, Toy Story manages to stay at the top of its game long enough for any gamer to admit it is an overall good game. You play as Woody, traveling through the full length story of Toy Story. The game is comprised of seventeen levels with story sequences in between. Most levels are basic side scrollers where you'll progress through the level as Woody with a few bosses in there. The levels range in variety. Not just basic side scroll levels, but there are a couple of levels where you'll control RC and a few levels where you'll be riding on a certain toy to get through a barage of obstacles in your way. Woody's "life gauge" is at the top of the screen. He has five hit points. When they're all used up you'll have to restart the level. Luckily, throughout these levels there are checkpoints for Woody to fall back on. There are fifty stars in each and every level of Toy Story. They're scattered around much like coins in Mario. If you get fifty Woody will get an extra life. If you come close he might get a few hit points restored instead. The levels aren't long and some of them are fairly simple to go through. Graphically, Toy Story looks really good for a Super Nintendo game. The freeze frame scenes from the move are of the actual movie itself, and Woody and the other toys move quite smoothly. There are a few frame rate issues from time to time. Moments when Woody will abruptly slow down but the action around him doesn't. This could cost you more than a few hit points. Some levels, such as controling RC, are downright frustrating. The music is a tough call. It isn't exactly the greatest sound track but it isn't bad either. It would've been nice if they'd borrowed more tunes from the movie. The music doesn't get repetative (there's different music for each and every level) but it just doesn't always sound great. Not only that, but some of the story sequences are horribly written. The game does present a good challenge, however, as most classic Super Nintendo games. You'll find yourself in trouble a few times. However, I have to point out that even for a Super Nintendo game it's short. For a late Super Nintendo it's short. The game can be completed within a half hour. Compare that with other SNES games (that aren't RPGs) that take at least 5 or 6 hours to beat and you'll wonder if Toy Story is really worth the time. I'd say it is. It's fun, and it's interesting. For Super Nintendo junkies, you might want to get a hold of it. It's actually a game based off a movie that's good, and that alone deserves a peak. Just be glad that it's an old SNES game that actually comes at a fair price.
