Reviews for Battle of the Toothpaste Tubes (#459)

Review by Stack on 29 Jan 2009 (Rating: 1)

Fly your vast toothpaste tube and fire at the bullet rebounding brushes! Dodge the fire from the grumpy pink tubes! Use your square pink shield! Bomb those tubes! Watch out for the deadly chattering teeth!
Dreadful name, dreadful idea, dreadful game.

What a horrible game. The idea is that you control a giant toothpase tube to fire at the evil Brush Bridge whilst trying to avoid the fire of the Mini Tubes and Chattering Teeth. If you don't hit the brushes of the Brush Bridge, you shot will rebound back at you.

Terrible concept and awful gameplay. Because the sprite of your tube is large, it's quite difficult to avoid the fire of the mini tubes. It also contains one of the worst names in gaming history let alone for the Spectrum.

Games like this make you not want to brush your teeth again.

Orthopedic game with some charm .

At least the plot is original ...

Is it just me or can't anyone see the humour in this game? Starting from the name and going thru the game play, this has to be a joke.

I can see what the author was trying with this game, a fresh concept, something new and different. The problem with this is it doesn't work well and the gameplay is quite flawed. Original concept yes and it can be considered tongue-in-cheek but the gameplay is far from fun and it almost makes no sense. Pity.
