Thank god most people got this game for free.
The Good
As a pack-in game that most people got included free with their Master System, it was a great demo to see what the machine was capable of..... in 1986. It's nice to look at, and see the enormous color palettes these games display.
The Bad
Both Hang-On and Safari Hunt never really go anywhere. They repeat over, and over and over again. Its hard to get excited about a game that never really ends, what objectives are there to gain?
The Bottom Line
If you're new to the Master System, both games are excellent starter titles to get acclimated to the system. Unfortunately there's not much replay value once you realize that you've repeated the same scenario 30 times.
