This is a review and tips book for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES, or Super Nintendo) games. It is the first of three books by Jeff Rovin with the 'Gamemaster', title, it follows his his successful 'How to Win at', series of books. This book reviews and details 92 games, with each entry for these games is broken up into the following sections; 'Story', 'Strategies', 'Comments', and a 'Violence' rating. The second part of the book is tips, passwords, and cheat codes for 117 games without an reviews information. Much of the 'Introduction' and the entire 'Afterword' are information on violence in videogames, with the view that ratings 'on' the games, is a form of censorship. Instead the author suggests a list that concerned parties can ask for at stores that would have information about the games content. The final section of the book is 5 pages of blank lines for the reader to write, scores, passwords, or tips, and then 5 pages of blank square-graphs, to chart any progress, or map levels. All of the 'Super NES Short-Takes' section would be reprinted nearly word for word, in the book "Gamemaster: The Complete Video Game Guide 1995" ISBN: 0312954395, with additional games and other systems added for that book. In that book the title 'Death Valley Rally', is shown at it's full name 'Road Runner's Death Valley Rally'.
