Vertical shoot'em up, a bit strange but really far from memorable.

A potentially interesting space shooter with nice movement and a responsive fire button but it is dogged by a lot of plot related bullshit designed to try and make it more complex and worthy.
The Galaga sequences are fun but the 'strategic' elements stall the action.

While some shooters can be and have been considered dull, this one kind of fits that bill for the most part. I mean it's alright but it doesn't really have anything of note that would keep you hooked for long.

Bland, monotonous shoot-em-up disguised as some sort of space exploration simulator. How it could be so well received at its time is beyond me.
