The Lion King fun

It's a blast! I had fun playing, with tons of levels for you to tackle! It starts as young Simba and you progress into adult Simba. You get more exciting moves too! And tackle your evil uncle himself, Scar! I give it two thumbs up!

Cool Game

I love the Lion King Game! It is still fun after i've been playing it for, oh maybe, 6 or 7 years. There are 10 levels. The first one is The Pridelands, where little Simba learns to jump, roll, climb, and kill enemies, like iguanas and hedgehogs, and a big one at the end! The second level is Can't Wait To Be King, where Simba gets thrown by monkeys, bounced by rhinos, and can take a ride on an ostritch. It's a little tricky to find out what you have to do to get thrown in the right place (hint: roar at the pink monkeys). The third level is what i like to call hyena heaven, but that's not what it's really called. It's a pretty easy level, just keep eating bugs and you'll be fine. The fourth level, The Stampede, gives you a front view of Simba as he runs through a large valley. He's supposed to jump over the rocks (or go around them) and dodge the antelope, but i've found that he can jump over the antelope as they come along. The fifth level is one with falling rocks, but i forgot the name. The rocks fall on you after about 5 seconds of standing in the same place, so keep moving. The sixth level is Hakuna Matata. In this level, Simba can slide down waterfalls, and as amazing as it sounds, climb up waterfalls (you'll see how). And there's a big hairy something at the end! In the seventh level, Simba is finally grown up, so he has some new moves, like slash and double slash, which are very useful in these levels, especially for those leopards. The next level is one that i also forgot the name, but it is just lava, lava, lava everywhere you go. Lava drips, lava volcanoes, lava rivers. Be careful and watch the hyenas and kill the bats fast please. I'm sorry, but the ninth level is a pain if you dont have the map. There are about 30 caves, each connecting to a different one, and no other one. The hyenas are vicious. (At the beginning, go to the cave on the far end.) The last level is pretty hard, but not the hardest. In this level, you meet Scar 3 times. Dont let him turn you over and slap your face. Run up to him and slap him repeatedly. It works. Be careful because there is lightening all around and fire too. In the last battle, Scar is pretty wiped out, and he is easier to beat. You know you have beaten him because he jumps out of the screen. If and when you kill him for the third time, go to the far left edge (dont fall off!) and ROAR! ROAR FOR JOY! You've finished the game! I suggest buying this game because, it's way past worth it.

A fun game

I just love this game! Not only did it entertain me years ago during a time of video games with [disappointing] graphics, it is very cute and will keep you busy for hours. Any fan of SNES needs to try it out!

I love this game!!

I have had this game for a couple of years now, and I still won't stop playing it!! Ok, I might be a little old to play it, but thats OK, because my friends don't need to know about their 13 year old friend playing this game. Anyways, I'm addicted to The Lion King!! It is one of my favorite games for SNES. And I am a cheater, since I use the invincibility code (...). But the game is really fun. BUY THE GAME!! IT'S WORTH IT!!

One of my favorite games!

This game is great! I've only got to the lava level because it's really hard. I was introduced to this by my cousin, and one of my best friends, when she was playing it on Sony. It's so much fun. I finally beat the water fall and I really want to buy it. I can't wait to get it cuz I can't rent it anymore with Super Nintendo and all. But it's still so much fun!

this was a fun game

"the lion king" is great except i never got to beat it because i was stuck on level 2!! but i cheated with the invincibility code.
But i'm usaully good with beating games but now i get stuck easily so i got sick of it. My favorite out of all the levels is the fight with scar but at the end he's hard because you have to flip him over the rock! i thought he just ran off but you have to grab him, flip him and then he falls all the way down,and then you get to ROAR!!!! and "hakuna matata" was good too. But i don't like the mini games that much you have to avoid bad bugs in one and they're everywhere! and some of the others are stupid sometimes especially the one where you are pumbaa and you have to eat the good ones and they get faster and faster when you eat more of the right ones. anyway the game is good except when your a cub because you don't get very good attack moves except roll and jumping but the hyenas are tough! you have to fight one but how do you fight two of them when one is in front of you and another is behind you? it's too hard for me because your toast if you don't put the invincibility thing on there! I tried that once and i died right before i could get past the first part of the level! the hyenas just kept coming one after another and another one came and another one came and a another one came...
But that's how the game is and actually the hyenas are smarter then anyother videogame badguys! well at least for super nintendo. and the best thing is that you don't die for touching a badguy unlike most of the nintendo badguys that if you touch by mistake you die, they have to chomp you or scratch you good before you die! which is good right? they touch you and you die not the other way around only you touch them and you die!!!
so it's sort of a good game!

One of the best games for the SNES.

I loved this game so much as a kid. The tragic things with what we loved as kids is that often our judgment is clouded by nostalgia and coming back to a childhood love is often disappointing. The Lion King for SNES (and its Genesis counterpart) do NOT disappoint. I found myself wondering how I beat the thing at age eight! It provides a challenge even for adult gamers. Not only does it deliver wonderful gameplay but the graphics are gorgeous. The music is also great and catchy. It's an overall quality game.

I guess the people who like this game are kids, because this game was seriously not fun and was a boring stale platformer. There is really no fun to be pulled out of this mess and is basically devoid of clear objectives, interesting challenges, good gameplay, or a noticeable storyline. The graphics and character designs look great along with the environments along with some enemy designs. Unfortunately, all I found myself doing was collecting health, killing wierd and stupid enemies, and wondering what the hell I was supposed to be doing in this stupid game because apparently the developer did not make your objectives clear by some decision or another. So you'll find yourself wandering a lot and trying to do a task all over again. This game is simply a chore and a nightmare to play. If you want to buy a good licensed game on a Disney movie, go buy the far better Aladdin game for SNES or Genesis.
