3D Adventures of Sailor Moon

You probably want to know what's this game all about, right? Well, it's a fun game where you get to see your favorite characters from Sailor Moon. It was introduced to me by my cousins from Penang, who were playing it. Although it's for kids 6+ of age, it doesn't matter. Any age can play. It's just for the sake of fun ;). Let me tell you all about what you can find inside this game.
Once you slot in the cd-rom into your desktop, you will see a sign that says 'Do you want to play the Sailor Moon game?' And click yes. But be sure your desktop must be Windows 95 cause I tried to slot into my Vista desktop once, it won't read the animations or clips. Unless there's a Vista version of this game, which I don't know. And of course, your colour mode must be 265.
Anyways, back to explaining about the game. After you click the yes button, you will see a 3VR logo appear on the screen and the word 'Presents' button with a rainbow. Then it immediately transports you to a clip of the theme song with Sailor Moon and Sailor Jupiter on each side.

After you heard the song, you'll hear a voiceover saying, "Oh no! Queen Beryl has her hands on the Sailor Scouts' transformation items." Then, you'll be transported to the main menu of the play areas. There are 5 different rooms with fun games to play and hidden inside the rooms are the Sailor Scouts' transformation items. All you have to do is to complete each task of the games and you'll win back their items. But before you enter in any of the room areas, you might wanna click on the little book on the top left corner. It tells you a story about your mission. Anytime during the game, you can quit by clicking on the quit button on top. Last but not least, click on the cats, Luna, Luna-P or Artemis, if you need any help. They will appear at the bottom right corner in every game.

It's play time!! First, head to the Puzzle room that looks like this:-

Of course, in every game, you'll see a 'Now Loading' sign appearing all the time. So, please be patient :).
Inside this room, you'll see a huge rubic cube with pictures from Sailor Moon. There are 3 levels in this game (Easy, Medium and Hard). Don't worry. It's quite easy to fix the puzzles since you can drag the pieces anywhere you like. But remember this. Anytime you slot in the cd-rom and when you come back to this room, you'll have different pictures for you to solve. So it's not always the same pictures. Pretty cool, right? What you need to do here is to solve any three puzzles (can be the same level or different levels, it's up to you). After each puzzle is solve, you'll hear some messages. Some are for learning and some are just for fun :). After you solve all three puzzles, you'll get back Sailor Mercury's transformation pen.

Next, go to the Galactic Moon Library that looks like this:-

Inside this room, you can see three different types of objects. To move around the room, click the right (backward) or left (forward) mouse button. Double click on the objects, you'll be transported to each Sailor Moon character files. Here, you can read each character's profile and see their individual pictures. Once you reach Tuxedo Mask's profile, go through his pictures and when you're at the last picture, you'll get back Sailor Jupiter's pen.
Here's a hint for you guys. To go to Tuxedo Mask's profile without going through the Sailor Scouts' profile, you can click on the heart shaped spinning with Serena and Darien's picture on it. It's like a shortcut way, if you ask me.

Alright! Three more to go! We're halfway there. Next, go to the Moon Fashion show room that looks like this:-

Inside this room, you'll see each Sailor Moon characters walking down the stage like a fashion model. Each wearing their fighting outfit. Click on them to go to the fitting room and dress your character in various costumes, not just their fighting outfit alone. Don't forget to take a photo after you dressed them up :). To change character, click on the symbols below the stage. For a shortcut just to get back the pen, click on Sailor Venus' symbol at the bottom of the screen. After you dress her up, take the photos and voila! You have her pen back.

Two more to go. Head to the Moon Castle TV Show that looks like this:-

Inside this room, you can see 9 different video clips from the show Sailor Moon, accompanied by cool music and different background of Sailor Scouts. You can see all the 9 videos from my YouTube channel here. Here's a cool thing. You can play the clips either forward or backward. Once you reach the final video, click on the plus button and you'll get back Sailor Mars' pen.

Before you go to the final room, why don't you click on the star in the middle to hear the theme song all over again. It's the same video when you come into the game.

Now, are you ready to fight the evil forces and retrieved the last item? If you are, click on the Battle Room that looks like this to begin:-

Inside this room, your mission is to shoot either the blobbies or crystals that appear with Sailor Moon's magic wand. Move forward by using your left mouse button and right mouse button to shoot. Each time you enter, you'll either land on a blood soaked crater or the lavender field on the moon. Be careful! You have to move quickly because the enemies move quite fast and tries to avoid you.

[Blobbies.jpg]

However, the battle is not over yet. After you shoot all the blobbies or crystals, you'll see Queen Beryl with other enemies from Sailor Moon in a box. Quickly shoot it until it disappears. After that, you'll get back Sailor Moon's crystal wand.

At last, you got all the 5 items back! You'll hear a melodic music and a voiceover saying, "Congratulations!" And it advises you to click on the star.
This time, you'll see a Congratulation sign board and Sailor Moon doing a twirl, plus the 'Now Loading' sign.

Guess what your prize is? You can revisit the play areas and play the games all over again until you get bored of playing. You don't have to do the shortcuts anymore. This time the play area is bigger than the one before. As usual, move forward or backward and double click to go inside the play areas. Each time you enter and leave the play areas, you'll have a different background.

That's all about the game. Hope you enjoy my review!
