4.0 out of 5 stars IT'll get you through the game, June 1, 2004
This review is from: Maximo Vs Army of Zin: Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
Maximo vs. Army of Zin is a tough game to master so you might need a leg up. Unfortunately BradyGAMES doesn't quite give you the boost you need all the time and while you can find everything, you'll have a heck of a time trying to find it using this walkthrough.

The guide begins with character bios and a short introduction. Then it goes into the "Knight School" section which will teach you everything you need to know about the game including the differences in difficulty levels. It gives you all the combos for all the weapons and prices for new combos and such which is good.

But beyond that the walkthrough is the problem. It'll get you through the game but the way its composed and presented doesn't always work. They begin with a 3D level map pin-pointing out items, telling you how many enemies, secret chests and innocents are in a level. But then the walkthrough begins with its text and thats when you notice a few things. For one, this walkthrough paces very slowly, focusing on some things that have no meaning in the walkthrough.

Second, there are a lack of screenshots in this guide. Some things it tries to explain but then there's no screenshot to illustrate what the author is trying to say. At least the walkthrough is well written in the aspect that the author is talking to you and not babying you.

The guide WILL help you master the game 100% but you have to be willing to work at a level slowly. The guide points out optional chests and tells you what's inside. When it comes to innocents, however, the guide is helpful but slow. If you are going to use this guide its one of those games where if you need some help you have to pause it... if you don't an innocent might be killed.

If you need the leg up this is a great guide to buy. It'll even tell you what the point to mastering all those levels are and the guide has no spoilers so it isn't bad. But the lack of screenshots and slow moving detail in the walkthrough make it so that you spend more time reading the walkthrough than playing the actual game.
