Once per life, characters also have a super attack which will hit multiple enemies on the screen. Players can also perform a quick slide maneuver in order to move quickly across the stage, however, if players collide while sliding, they will spin out of control. This damages the player, but can also damage enemies while the characters spin. Power-up collectibles are scattered throughout the game's various levels, each of which provide a boost to the combat proficiency of both Pocky and Rocky. Some of the power ups will make their projectiles larger in size, make the player shoot more projectiles. There are also items which will recover life points or make the character invincible. Whenever a player collects an items, they will gain points for their feat. Pocky & Rocky has three levels of difficulty: easy, normal, and hard. With each increase in difficulty, enemies become tougher and more numerous, and bosses will gain additional life. There is no reward for completing the game on harder levels.Anyone who owned a Super Nintendo is probably familiar with the series name Pocky & Rocky. Produced by Natsume (and developed by Taito), the two SNES games – which are now huge rarities, especially complete with box and instructions – feature a young girl and a raccoon battling the forces of evil. How? Ninja magic and lots of shooty shooty, of course. While the games have retained a bit of a legacy, it’s been ages since we’ve seen a new one. However, Natsume and ININ Games has never forgot about the duo and now we have a completely new adventure for PS4/PS5 and Nintendo Switch, Pocky & Rocky: Reshrined. ![]() Now, just a word of warning – this game is hard. I’ve cursed up a storm on a couple of levels myself. That said, however, it definitely fits the duo, and will be a welcome treat for anyone who’s ever enjoyed their adventures before. In fact, if you live and breathe old-school, you should own this.
