This game in a single word: Beautiful.

The Good
This game is beautiful. The graphics look like a well-drawn comic book, and moves like a good cartoon. Clear, crisp colors, and nicely designed sprites make this game a visual treat, and the music and sound effects fit nicely into the scheme. The control is also excellent, easy to work with, though the little inventory system is a bit off to work with.

The Bad
The enemies didn't have much variety from panel to panel, fighting the same characters over and over got pretty annoying. Also, this game is REALLY difficult. It's very hard to get through only a few pages of play. I think I've made it as far as the third page, but then, maybe I'm just not that good at this game...

The Bottom Line
This is a great game, well worthy of a purchase if you find a copy, even worth buying the system just to play this one game (though also picking up other top-notch Genny games is definitely worth it as well).
