Master System manual

I guess the European Master System manual for this game is in fact an Australian one ... i have a scan, of a complete and true European manual and I will upload it soon (today)...--Asagoth (talk) 14:57, 24 January 2018 (CST)

Rename

I was planning to make this set of pages consistent with Marble Madness - have two pages for the Mega Drive versions, and another for the 8-bit ones (on the grounds that they're all different interpretations of the same game, and we can't really separate one over the others).

The only problem is I was going to move this to "Klax (Tengen)"... which was before I noticed that the Master System and Game Gear versions were published by Tengen. Now I'm wondering if Andlabs was wrong, and we should have kept everything on one Klax page (as is currently the case with Marble Madness).
