 Zool, like it or not, is a brilliant classical character. Now forgotten in the whisps of time, this two-sworded, black alien ninja has been the base of most 2D platformers after it. All games were sponsered by Chupa Chups (A lollipop company) adn went on to sell extremely well. Later on, more characters were added such as Zooz, a young female ninja with a fire-whip. It's a shame that this great series has fallen into the shadows after only two games, but as long as it's remembered it will be revered as a hallmark in quality gaming. ROAREYE! |
