I have to write a review for this ROM hack. It is stupefying. I was not expecting something so good from such a format - by that I mean a time attack run - but it's breathtaking how original, clever and fun to play this hack is. I had not had fun playing a Metroid 3 hack in years, and I play every single one I can find here or on sites more dedicated to hacks of the Metroid franchise. This hack could seem intimating at first, since most areas are not that small, and you have a one-hour timer counting down, but even if you do fail, restarting immediately will allow you to do things differently and beat the countdown. Because of the very idea behind this ROM hack, it has immense replay value. You should play it five or six times before you have experienced the hack fully, or figured out how to obtain all items within the time limit. One can tell the hacker (Metaquarius) had a lot of fun with room design, enemy placement and how bosses are fought. A brilliant idea very well executed. I hope to see more of such hacks in the future. | |||
