Conrad Dangerous
Conrad Dangerous is a freeware platform game. Although some of the art and sound effects in Conrad Dangerous are similar to the Rick Dangerous games, the gameplay is more like Rick Dangerous meets Mario Brothers, as there is a lot of running, jumping and shooting and the screen scrolls with Conrad. Conrad can also swim and you can use the mouse to aim where he shoots his lasers. There are four eras containing 12 levels and there are over 30 enemies. Conrad Dangerous uses OpenGL graphics, wav sounds and mod music. It was programmed in C++ using OpenGL, Directsound and FMod libraries.Conrad Dangerous Screenshots

Conrad Dangerous Reviews
Do you remember Maupiti Island? Probably the most difficult adventure even seen. Playing this game to the end without using a walkthrough made you a game god. You don't remember? It's normal, it's been more than 10 years since the release of that game. How is this intro connected with today's reviewed game Conrad Dangerous, which is obviously (surely you've already looked at the pictures) (everyone looks at the pictures first) of a completely different genre? Difficulty, ladies and gentlemen, that's the point. Each one of four levels (which are further divided into several sub-levels) is damn difficult and it will not be easy to finish them. You will be destroying the keyboard, insulting the monitor and trying to destroy that damn turtle using your laser gun. And you will enjoy it, it's a personal guarantee. Conrad Dangerous surprised me with perfect gameplay, great graphics and surprising visual effects. Definite thumbs up!
Score: 4/5
