Wonder 3 Arcade Gears is the Playstation conversion of the arcade machine Three Wonders.
Wonder 3 features three arcade games on one disc. These games all originated from the early 90s. Roosters (Midnight Wanderers),Chariot and Don't Pull
The 3 games are as follows (Western names):
- Roosters Midnight Wanderers - a lovely action platform game, which bears more than a passing resemblence to Ghouls 'n' Ghosts. It's a lot more colourful than that game, and it a little easy, but if you watch your continues, you'll have great fun with this game!. It's also 2 players, which is something GnG never offered.
- Chariot - a really gorgeous horizontal shooter. Bearing a slight resemblance to Cotton, or even Parodius, only with much bigger sprited/enemies, the game has an amazingly colourful dreamlike look which may have been slighlly inspired by the film 'The Never Ending Story.' Don't let that put, you off, I guess you'll understand when you play it. The important thing is, the game is fantastic, and everyone I know who has played it said they would have bought it as a full priced game on it's own.
- Don't Pull - It's a simple puzzle game, but amazingly, it's my pick of the bunch. I actually used to own the arcade PCB, and this is the game I had most fun with. I'd pretty much say this game is as fun as classics like Splash Lake and Bomberman!
