“Rick Henderson is paying a big tip of the hat towards old school 16-bit shoot ‘em ups.”

“The gameplay might be standard fare, yet it has the qualities that a good game can generate: It isn’t just action and warfare, but also a play of classic ideas.”

“Whilst the core gameplay loop is small, it has loads of variations on its theme to keep you engaged and coming back for more.”
7.5/10 –
