CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Essentially a major update to the original brick-buster, Ricochet Lost Worlds: Recharged plays much the same as the first Ricochet Lost Worlds, significantly improving the variety of boards and the use of power-up abilities. Spiders drop from the ceiling, go-carts zoom across the screen, and torpedoes fly all over the place as the chaotic action builds to a frenzy. Pop-culture references enliven the board designs, and the two-hour trial provides a bountiful amount of arcade fun.
The standard ball speed, ball size, shield size, and multiball power-ups are the same as in the original, but new weapons such as EMP balls, laser balls, and ball generators create an assortment of ways to complete the levels. Sometimes you'll get stuck with no power-ups trying to gamely hit that last brick that's wandering all over the board, but Recharged does a good job of limiting such frustrations. It's not entirely clear how many boards are available in the trial. We managed to get through 44 in the first pack before we reached the limit, but we couldn't get nearly as far in the other packs before using up our two hours. Brick-buster fans should enjoy Ricochet Lost Worlds: Recharged.

Version: Ricochet Lost Worlds: Recharged 1.1
Pros: Richochet Lost Worlds is better than any previous versions and by far, this game is extremely fun due to the groovy scenes/backgrounds. It's more "realistic" than the other Ricochets. Best of all, it's unlimited play so you basically got one stage free.
Cons: None right now.

Version: Ricochet Lost Worlds: Recharged 1.1
Pros: Kind of neat graphics and sound effects.
Cons: The game was confusing and didnt make much sense. I also had tonnes of trouble getting the key code after I paid for it.
Spent lots of time going back and forth with Relfexive to get the key code that I paid for. Wow, what a mess.
Definitely not worth the trouble.
