Name: Beauty and the Beast series (2 titles)
Belle's Quest
Roar of the Beast
Author/Vendor: Sunsoft/Disney
Released: 1993 (both titles)
Type: Platform
Language: English
Premise: Two passable arcade games loosely inspired by characters and situations from the Disney animated version of the classic fairy tale Beauty and the Beast.
Impressions: The graphics aren't up to Disney's usual standards (or Sunsoft's, for that matter), and gameplay is merely passable at best. Roar of the Beast is the better of the two games under this title, but Belle's Quest is the more faithful to the film. Take your pick - I really don't care for either one.
Variations: Belle's Quest (the more faithful of the two to the movie, although the graphics aren't worthy of the franchise)
Roar of the Beast (sometimes mistakenly referred to as Battle of the Tower, this is a side story in which the Beast must save his domain from enchanted monsters driven by "the evil outside" - the better looking but more ridiculous of the two, and the worse playing, too)
Recommended Emu: Genecyst X
