Magical Chase -- Hudson Soft

Help Ripple the witch apprentice recapture the demons she accidentally released into the world, or she'll be turned into a frog by her teacher. A cartoony realm is your arena in Magical Chase, a side-scrolling shooter for the Turbo Duo from Hudson Soft.

Once again the Duo proves its' dominance of the shooter market. With the introduction of Magical Chase the Duo adds one more to the list of many good shooters. While MC is not of the caliber of some of the CD shooters it is an excellent chip, great for owners of the original TG-16. The game has a wide range of skill levels that make it good for the youngest players, to the most experienced.

The basis of this story is strange along with all the characters. You control a witch on a broomstick in this shooter. All the enemies are wierd and don't do much except shoot bullets at you. Graphically this game isn't too bad and the music was fair too. The gameplay however didn't respond quite as fast as I would have liked. This game will last awhile if you are a fan of shooters, however there is really nothing new about the game except the storyline. Not bad, I would rent this one first before buying it though.
