Nomis: Legacy Islands is a 2D shooter where you must race to beat the robot general before he can resurrect a weapon hidden long ago. In the game you start on a ship with one weapon and must make your way off it to get to the next level. Continue on with weapon upgrades and boss battles throughout the game. Over 20 levels to explore and learn.

The graphics in this game are very good. With bridges and chasms to navigate and bad guys to defeat, it is really quite pleasing on the eyes. My only wish is that you could shoot and blow everything up if necessary.

The sound is alright here. Good music but the gunshots probably could have used a little more oomph to the sound.

This game offers both single and coop play available locally and is well worth the price. Definitely a game for everyone that provides fun, excitement and at least a few hours of play before you get to the end. Watch out for some of the tougher baddies though if you make the mistake I did and just run forward shooting. Some won’t go down with just one shot. Definitely a must have to play on this one. Four thumbs up from me.
