Segaiden 83: Time Soldiers & Ys
Added 2025-05-14 11:23:18 +0000 UTCI've been holding on to the Master System version of Ys as a treat for a rainy day. By which I mean as a sort of palette-cleanser after surviving a succession of extremely unpleasant games. Though, as it happens, today is pretty rainy here.
So, apologies for all the duff games that we've had to sit through (including this episode's lead feature, Time Soldiers). Ys is good and worthwhile.
Next week: a fun surprise!

Sadly, Y's was not a pack in game for the Turbo CD. That bad boy sold for $399 and included no game at all. I got one only after it went on clearance.

The time travelling concept was reasonably well executed, and I like how the bullets on screen were not golf balls - as opposed to the oft-celebrated Secret Command aka Rambo: First Blood Part II - giving our ageing response times more room to manoeuvre.
