Review

Elta, the remaining Magician Lord must save his homeland from Gul-Ageize who has taken over the realm.
Even for an arcade game, it looks very good, firing off round of magical energy after another into an endless horde of evil creatures. Plus the amazing backgrounds makes the game appear almost fluid.

It also has some impressive music to go along with it, boosting the feeling it gives the player. Like other arcade games of the era, the sound effects are of the highest quality, and have had a bit of effort placed into them.

Neo-Geo has very accurate arcade ports, which are of course, arcade difficult, which is to say, they are difficult so that the player can continue putting in their allowances to continue playing. Though, there is the outside help of transforming, granting different attacks and a boost of health, however those are few inbetween.

It is good for a short while, however its cumbersome difficulty really detracts from the fun. I would bet against it.
