PC Engine Longplay [063] Terra Cresta II: Mandler no Gyakushuu (JP)

[@murder.simulator]

I never knew until just now that there was a whole series of Cresta games. I only ever played that old arcade game Moon Cresta where you had to dock with larger ship pieces at the end of each stage. And you'd get those early engrish phrases "Right on! Far out!"

This actually looks pretty cool. It has strong "1987 arcade game" vibes and there's some sweet art design in the backgrounds. A few years earlier this might have been regarded as a visually impressive game.

Mandler's Counterattack!

A Shmup from 1992 with 1 hour and 20 minutes of total playtime?! Damn! That's some content!

Several really bullet spongey bosses, which the player fights grimly with the pea shooter... it repeats almost every enemy wave at least once... and it also has a lot of levels!

Never seen this one. But the 'cresta' title brought back nostalgic memories, playing moon cresta as a young kid on my dad's Amstrad cpc.

Hi

This sequel is quite poor, bland and boring in comparison with arcade TC 1.
