im probably not qualified to rate this since i used a guide because i cannot deal with cryptic nes bullshit but it was like okayish for what it is and what it is is an extremely barebones clunky directionless game with annoying enemy and boss design (fuck you mother brain) but i didnt hate playing it entirely (a guide and save states definitely remedied that tho lol) so yeah ok game with the stipulation that you use all the tools possible to circumvent the game being not very good (this rating means fucking nothing otherwise then)
