This game is just tons of fun. We have all wanted to play with our toys again as adults, and this game allows that fantasy to come true. The graphics are exhilirating and the game play, especially the multiplayer, is extremely fun.

One of the most imaginative games ive ever played

Imagine flying a toy jet through a model town (made up of doll houses, stereo equipment, and blocks) in total 3d. Then Imagine that there is a giant blow up godzilla (dressed in a bunny suit) destroying the town. If you can picture that than you can begin to imagine the amount of imagination that was needed to create this game. Toy Commander allows you to control several different toy plains and cars in a world that fits the toys size. Rooms and objects appear huge compared to you.The missions in this game very extremely. In one mission you have to protect a toy tugboat from wind up submarines in a floaded kitchen. In another you have to destroy a spider and its children before they can kill a toy helicopter stuck in a web. The deathmatch is really fun (4 players max) and it allows you to choose between 35 different toys (43 if you beat all the bosses). The only complaint I have is that to play all the deathmatch levels you have to unlock them by beating missions in the single player game.

The best Dreamcast game yet!

Designs and missions are awesome! Hour and hours or fun. This game has almost limitless character. The best visuals create one of the best examples of the manifestation of creative design I've ever seen. Sounds of various vehicles are all very well done, and the weapon sounds are also pretty cool. Music is also quite thematic, and helps keep the frantic pace. Well done.

Incredibly Addictive and Entertaining

I received a demo of Toy Commander with a copy of the Official Dreamcast Magazine. I had read about the game on a couple Dreamcast sites and thought I might pick it up. After I popped the demo disk into my Dreamcast and checked out the three Toy Commander missions included, I no longer thought I might buy the game--I KNEW I would.

I purchased the game and have since logged a solid three hours playing it. Now, granted, I have only played within two rooms, and not all those missions, but I am already addicted to this game. While Sonic, House of the Dead 2, and Soul Calibur are all great games, Toy Commander beats them all. This game is incredibly fun and entertaining. Whether blowing away submarines with a fighter plane or taking out bombers with a heavy duty combat-vehicle, there is no shortage of gameplay here. The developers truly have managed to recreate the fun of being a little kid and playing with your toys.

There are around 50 missions, I believe, and a boss for each room, whom you can battle if you beat their time on a sufficient amount of the missions. You can take control of 35 different vehicles, as well.

In addition, there is a 2-4 player death match included. But, based on what little I played with it, the deathmatch is just as addictive as the regular game.

There are some issues with the difficulty of some of the missions, but I would say this is minor gripe when you take into account how great the gameplay is.

All in all, this is one of the very best games available for the Dreamcast. I cannot imagine anyone not enjoying this game, and it is a potential system-seller. At least, I know it is in one case--my brother was undecided about the Dreamcast but now plans to purchase it in the next couple weeks after he played my Toy Commander demo.

If you have a Dreamcast, get Toy Commander. If you don't have a Dreamcast, buy one then get Toy Commander. Don't miss this game; it is too entertaining.

A Dreamcast favorite

This is one of my favorites for the Dreamcast yet! Highly recommended, a good blend of innovation, challenge, and presentation. It takes awhile to pick up, but once you get the hang of it, it is very cool. There are lots of missions, but this is also one of the few games where I have fun trying the missions over and over to beat my score. This really adds to replay value.

It rules.

OK, I own many dreamcast games ( Toy Commander, Trickstyle, Sonic Adventure, Sega Bass Fishing, Power Stone, Soul Calibur, Marvel vs. Capcom, and NFL 2K) and NONE of them are as good as this. Toy Commander excels in graphics, sound, control, replay, and gamepolay unlike any other. A TRUELY great game.

I hope you have a lot of spare time on your hands!

I am a 20-year old collage student so when I first heard about the game Toy Commander I laughed outloud. To my surprise I kept getting positive feedback from my friends so I bought it hoping it would be a dreamcast game that I could really get into...and that is exactly what it did! I have not been able to put the game down! The worlds are so creative and unique. There is a ton of missions to master and playback value will be unbelivable. The game is very hard though but trust me you feel so good after every trophy you win. Buy this game!

awesome

just purchased my dreamcast - and I have Soul Caliber and Toy Commander.. While Soul Caliber is clearly the best 3d fighting game, hands down, Toy Commander is one of the best mission play games I've seen in a long time. Goes a long way to detail the environment, and shows that you don't need big guns and bombs to make a great game - just your average house with a couple of toys! For those new to the dreamcast - this game is highly recommended. I've been impressed by the dreamcast - both games I've purchased have been a hit in my book.

The best Dreamcast game yet!

This game is incredible! Everything in the game is nearly perfect.. the graphics are incredible, the control is tight (the vehicles handle the way you'd think real toys would handle) and the difficulty is just right. A lot of reviews have said that the difficulty is uneven -- that you'd finish a really difficult mission and then go to an extremely easy one. Well I think that is good, actually, since you can choose the easy missions in a particular room to get you ready for the hard ones. Anyway, this game is as close to perfect as an Dreamcast game yet. It's long, too.. I've been playing it almost nonstop since I got it a week ago and the end is nowhere in sight. I'd highly recommend Toy Commander to anyone!

An immersive, highly entertaining experience.

Toy Commander is a must have for the Dreamcast owner who is a child at heart. The game is solid because the developers took the time to polish the basics--graphics, control, collision detection, mission length...What makes the game excellent is the "wow factor" when you first begin playing. I'm not refering to its graphics, which are quite good, but the emotion the game generates as you realize you've got a unique title on your hands. The 3-d environments do a superb job of creating the illusion that you've somehow shrunk to the size of a cockroach and are commanding an army of toy vehicles. Who hasn't imagined experiencing the world from a lillipution standpoint? As a bonus, this world is inhabited with sundry other toys bent on your destruction, who themsevles blow up real good. Fortunately, after the novelty of the environments wear off (and that takes a long time), what you'll be left with is a game that is deep enough so that you'll be happy you purchased it. For me, Soul Calibur, while graphically beautiful, was dissapointing because it was so easy to beat. Beating Toy Commander will take some time -- you'll get your money's worth, and find yourself giggling like a school girl along the way.
