Action-Packed, but not worth it

The Good
The game itself is developed by Wolfteam, with the credits including the handful of staffers that eventually went on to found Tri-Ace. This is also Yoshiharu Gotanda's first programming job at Wolfteam as a sub-programmer.

The game itself has a great storyline and design. You have to use a few of your weapons here and there to move platforms and flip switches.

The Bad
The fact that Yukihiro Takahashi did the composition for this game. I did not understand the logic behind this with Motoi Sakuraba and Shinji Tamura working at Wolfteam, and being such great composers working the sound effects for the game when they should be composing. The compositions were only half-decent due to Hiroya Hatushiba's great sound programming abilities.

The game itself is far too quick for a Super Famicom game, you could finish the game in about an hour if youve played it through a few times.

The Bottom Line
Its not worth your time. This is not one of Wolfteam's great games.
