What we thought

Chris

"Solidly playable is how I'd describe this game, this is something you can put on for half an hour when you feel like it and just waste time. The soundtrack is very good, as are the designs for the bad guys, and the replayability is excellent too with a reasonable difficulty and multiple difficulty levels"

4/5

"I think this is a good game, its not one of the greatest games ever or anything but its just a solid release. I like the art design, with the very grotesque monsters and great horror theming throughout, and the soundtrack is pretty good too. Its not however a beat-em-up I would immediately recommend on Mega Drive, that would be titles like Streets of Rage and its sequels and possibly even Hyperstone Heist, but after you've checked out the more famous titles in the genre and want to try something different this is a good place to head"

3/5
