Introducing our three chief protagonists: Aero the Acrobat, a daredevil
bat who is the star of the circus; Edgar Ektor, clown prince and mean guy
extraordinare; and Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel, Ektor's chief henchman whose
sense of duty and loyalty seem strangely misplaced.
Probably the most concerted effort by a software house in cloning the success of the Sonic series. Gets old fast, ridiculous in places, but you never lack for action. I'm told that these games sold by the bucketful when they were first released, so Sunsoft's stratagem must have worked. In Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel, a spinoff from the Aero the Acrobat games, Zero gets the chance to play hero for a change - the best of the series, it compares well with the original Sonic in its own way. |
