Excellent remake of a great game.
Along with Ultima IV and Phantasy Star this game was one of the most advanced Master System (and 8bit in general) games, it's a linear path side scrolling adventure platformer with light RPG elements and a hub world, not quite a Metroidvania due to the lack of a true open world but there's a lot to explore here with lots of secrets, powerful items and rare loot drops. It was a exceptional game back then and is just as relevant and impressive now with a shiny coat of paint. It's a fantastic labour of love which accurately remakes one of my favourite SMS games in a tasteful manner. Everything is spot on here - the whistful music and cutesy graphics are brought up to date and look amazing but still retain the character of the original. You can flick between the modern and Master System tilesets with the press of a button as well as changing the music back to the original PSG chiptune - playing vith modern visuals and the original audio is actually really neat. It also has an easy mode which is a welcome addition for casual players, the original game could be punishingly difficult and even on easy if you go into the wrong area too soon without the correct equipment you will die very quickly. So this would easily be a 5 star review, unfortunately I went to load my save (close to the end of the game with all the best items collected) and the game said the file was corrupted and deleted it, so although I absolutely love this game and will definitely play it again it can't really give it more than 3 due to this. Make sure you back up that save file just to be sure - it's in My Documents - Lizardcube.
