Amstrad Action reviewed Imagine's Amstrad CPC version (£9.95 on cassette, £14.95 on disk) in January 1989 and gave it 74% (graphics 72%, sonics 41%, grab factor 78%, staying power 69%). The reviewer, signed GBH, found smooth scrolling and colorful graphics, no tunes, and six lives, and thought Ikari Warriors still had the edge. The second opinion, signed SC, said: "Now if you've got to have Ikari Warriors clones, make 'em like this.
