He\u2019s been a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/2012\/07\/15\/johnny-kung-fu-3ds\/\"><strong>Kung-Fu master<\/strong><\/a>, a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/2012\/11\/26\/johnny-hotshot-3ds\/\"><strong>sharp-shooting cowboy<\/strong><\/a>, and even starred in his own <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/2012\/09\/21\/retro-pocket-dsiware\/\"><strong>LCD Game &amp; Watch style game<\/strong><\/a>. Now he\u2019s taking on the evil Mr. Wang and his gang as a super spy in this 2-D stealth platformer, downloadable from the eShop on Nintendo 3DS.<\/p>\n<p>As Johnny, you\u2019ll infiltrate secret bases filled with traps and snares. Johnny can jump, crawl, and use special items he acquires, like a stun gun or night vision goggles. You have 30 minutes to get through the complex and stop a satellite from destroying the city. If you run out of time, it\u2019s Game Over. Don\u2019t get caught by robots, lasers, or spotlights, or you\u2019ll trigger an alarm and must leave the room quickly or face the consequences. If you trip a surveillance device or get zapped by enemies, you can come back to life at the cost of a good chunk of your time.<\/p>\n<p>On the bottom screen you can view a map of rooms you\u2019ve already visited. You\u2019ll have to collect keycards and codes to bypass certain doors, and even play a mini-game or two. I do like the sense of humor in the game, but the difficulty and high learning curve hinders the fun. All the rooms look the same, so it\u2019s hard to navigate. Plus, in many rooms you have limited vision, which hurts the stealth gameplay. But if you enjoy stealthy games with a high dose of challenge, you might enjoy this one anyway.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=9034\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9034\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9034\" alt=\"JOHNNY_SCREEN\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/JOHNNY_SCREEN.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/JOHNNY_SCREEN.jpg 400w, http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/JOHNNY_SCREEN-125x150.jpg 125w, http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/JOHNNY_SCREEN-250x300.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Johnny Impossible is rated E for Everyone with an ESRB descriptor of Mild Fantasy Violence.
