Michael Jackson's Moonwalker 1

Michael Jackson's Moonwalker 1  is such an interesting game which will bring players much fun as well as relaxation.

In Moonwalker, you take the role of Michael as he travels through a corrupt city rescuing children (don't worry, they're all girls, so they're safe). Although his adversaries; crooks, mobsters, gang bangers, and thugs, pack all kinds of heat, Michael chooses to face his enemies with a far greater power in hand: the power of dance.

Moonwalker is a quintessential 16-bit platformer. You travel through primarily horizontal stages, looking inside trap doors, dumpsters, and car trunks looking for the captured girls, although you may also find Shinobi bombs. No, they're not just bombs. Look at them. They're the exact same bombs from Shinobi.

Before you get to that far, many, many enemies will impede your progress, and to combat them, Michael has an arsenal of tricks up his sleeve. Pressing the attack button makes Michael perform a single dance move. Each move he performs throws out some "dance magic" (i.e. sparkles), which blows his enemies away as if they were made of paper. Michael can also do various other stylish techniques in certain situations, like sliding down banisters and other slanted rails, moonwalking along precarious surfaces, and dodging enemy fire by spinning. Everything controls pretty well, although it's a bit obnoxious to try to walk down staircases.

When you gain a certain number of points, something very peculiar happens; a shooting star flies across the screen. If you manage to catch it, Michael will suddenly be turned into a giant robot. This is very hard to do though, as the star can be fairly unpredictable and you only have about a second to get to it, and unless you constantly monitor your points, you won't be able to foresee its coming. It appears Michael turns into a car and drives himself between stages, but during the last stage, thinks get even weirder when Michael boards a spaceship in order to have his final showdown with Mr. Big, who also inexplicably has a spaceship. This battle is done from a cockpit perspective, with an overly complicated HUD. It's so off the wall that it's unforgettable.

The most awesome aspect of Moonwalker is its music. Most of Michael Jackson's greatest songs from the 80s are played during every stage of Moonwalker.
