I have mixed feelings about this game. It's not terrible, but almost too hard to be fun. I understand that it was an arcade that was made to suck quarters. If you've read some of the descriptions to some of my other videos you'll know that I'm not immediately opposed to hard games, but there has to be some redeeming quality about the game to justify it's difficulty. This game to me has nothing redeeming about it. The game feels very cramped with tiny rooms with too much going on, and on top of that you're timed so you don't have time to stand around much to decide your strategy. Also the overall design of this game just bores me.

I never did play this game in the arcades back in the day. This was one of those machines that I walked passed because it looked boring and hard. I had better machines to lose my money in.

The music has been upgraded and the visuals look like they've been cleaned up from the original. I'm not sure why this game is such a hit that it keeps being included in game compilation collections. Maybe Sega is just really proud of this game.
