Title
As good as a 2D action platformer can get. Leagues above previous series entries and anything other systems had to offer. The variety of moves and smoothness of movement lends itself well to the stages that confront you in new and challenging ways.

    This game is severely overlooked these days; if you're a fan of classic action platformers, this is one of the best of the genre. Very good soundtrack too.

    brainlets: "The Genesis doesn't have good music compared to the SNES, it's all tin cans and farts!"

    Weirdly good game. You'd expect something with such large sprites to feel clunky, but it's all pretty solid and has a lot of variety.

    Not as good as Revenge of Shinobi imo. Certainly not as challenging. Still a good game though
