The quintessential game of serendipity... The best shooter ever made.

A lengthy enough endeavor for shooter fans of a mildly forgiving disposition.

With the feel and look of many of the Super Nintendo and Capcom shooters like "UN Squadron," this is a sharp looking, entertaining flyer.

Varied and frantic "bullet hell" horizontal scrolling shoot 'em up with a good selection of weapons and nice graphics. The enemy fire can sometimes be a little difficult to see on the small screen so you can't look away for a second, but otherwise probably the best of its type on the GBA.

There are no continues and no in-game saves, a turn-off to anyone without the time to memorize boss patterns and an effective way to kill the point of that whole “portable” thang.

A nice alternative to "Gradius." [Feb 2002, p.66]

Maybe it is the fact that you will frustratingly lose lives because it is not always clear what is potentially deadly scenery, and what is harmless background...Whatever it is, there is something lacking that denigrates this game workmanlike and a tad dull.

Extremely boring. [Jan 2002, p.98]
