Kivi’s Underworld Review

The editors at Mac|Life have posted a short but generally favorable review of Soldak Entertainment’s Kivi’s Underworld, giving it an overall score of 4/5.

The levels feature tons of monsters to kill, plus dozens of power-ups, traps, hidden rooms, and locked doors. Finding the hidden rooms can be a frustrating matter of clicking every stretch of wall you walk by before tripping the trap doors, but hunting them all down pays off when you win more skill points at the end of a stage.

The controls couldn’t be easier all you need is a mouse, although there are optional keyboard shortcuts too. And the old-school graphics look great, with resolutions from 800×600 to 1920×1200. Our only gripe with the presentation is the lame, repetitive music, but that’s easy to turn off.
