Sabor
Gameplay involves both reflexes and some rudimentary decision-making elements similar to oldie Cinemaware games (e.g. It Came From The Desert). Although the game is in Russian, its focus on arcade elements make it quite accessible to non-Russian players. When you train the fighters, a keyboard map appear to flash the keys you can usea nice feature that makes the game a lot easier to learn. Training sessions are a lot of fun, especially since you can watch the fighters become better at punching enemies. Unfortunately, once the fighters graduate from school and move to engage real enemies, you cannot do much except watch from the sidelines and hope they dont forget their lessons.
Overall, Sabor is a fun and unique fighting game that deserves a look. Bland graphics and passive gameplay hurt long-term play value, and unlike puzzle games from GAMOS its not addictive. Good for a few minutes, though, and the game concept of train-fighters-to-fight is definitely intriguing enough to warrant a second lookand a modern facelift.
