An interesting conversion with its own pros and cons. The levels are all there from the original, outside a boss and a boss phase that couldn't be rendered on the hardware. The screens are also less capable of fulling you with the arcade's bullshit, but you get different ones instead like enemies poofing in out of nowhere.

The shop is improved from the arcade, the prices of items are reduced, and most importantly there's no time limit to shopping so you can think your purchases through. You still have to scroll in the shop but I'll take what I can get.

So in short, Master System Fantasy Zone is "Fantasy Zone but easier but also not really"
