What Troy 2000 lacks in plot, it makes up for a bit other aspects. The graphics are very well designed, and colorful. The Troy, and enemy sprites are animated in a simplistic fashion, but they fit the overall style of the game well. The music is well composed, and very entertaining to listen to, and doesn't get old. While there really isn't anything groundbreaking here, it's all very fun, and well presented. A somewhat unique feature for this type of game is being able to start at any level you have already made it to, you you don't have to repeat levels if you don't want to. Unfortunately, Troy is lacking options. If you dislike anything about all the default settings, too bad. The defaults are pretty good though, so this may not be an issue.

        JJSoft Games has proven that shareware isn't dead. One thing this game really has going for it, is there is no price to try. You get a generous 20 levels out of 55 for free. That's a little more game than oughta be free, and I like it. One other important detail worth noting, is that for a Windows game, Troy 2000 is pretty much bug free. No memory errors, illegal operations, or incompatibility with some versions of Windows. You can't even find games this bug free on retail shelves. With all that said, let it be known that I'm impressed.
