When considering ultra-low budget titles it’s hard not to grade a bit on a sliding scale as impulse buys are often what they are to people, there’s a hope it works out but if not there wasn’t much lost to get it. With a look and feel reminiscent of the old NES days, Biolab Wars is an old school side-scrolling shooter with sensibilities that often feel more representative of that era than the current one. You’ll run, gun, collect power-ups, try to avoid enemy fire, and can expect to die relatively often. Not much here is what I’d consider inspired or even polished but that isn’t to say if you’re in the right mindset you can’t have a pretty good time with it. If you’ve been itching for a variation on classic shooting themes and are willing to part with a few paltry bucks this may be enough to entertain you for a little while.
