Ahhh, what a classic. What's that? It's *not* a classic but actually a repetitive pile of poop? I'm sure I remember enjoying it at the time, in the arcades, at least. How bad could a home conversion be? I mean, ok, the cover art looks like deranged taxidermist tried to sew a corpse and a wolf together, rather than a man transforming into a beast but we know better than to judge a game by its cover, don't we?

Loaded from original (cough) media onto a genuine 'breadbin' C64 and played with a Quickshot 2 Turbo joystick, no emulation!
