Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX Review
Summary
Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX is the same game we all played as a kid, with a new coat of paint and it works for the most part. Though the game might prove to be too difficult for today’s gamers.
Pros
- Retro mode is an awesome nostalgia trip
- A great challenge for any gamer
Cons
- The only thing remastered is the graphics
- The rest of the games in the series should have been added
