Genre: Action

















Rastan Saga II (ラスタンサーガII) is a 1988 arcade platformer by Taito and the sequel to Rastan. Taito ported it to the Sega Mega Drive in 1990 — though Americans would need to have played both versions to know the MD version was a port, as the arcade game was called Nastar or Nastar Warrior there. The MD version was not released in Europe, where the game was called Nastar.

Rastania is a land known for its temple, the aptly named Skyscraper. A "wicked group" (who are not identified further) tries to take control of Skyscraper, knowing that succeeding would make them rulers of Rastania. You are a warrior who must stop them before they succeed.

A attacks; use the D-pad to aim your attack and hold A to repeatedly attack. B jumps. C appears to do nothing, but the arcade version does have multiple collectable weapons, so C might switch weapons when other weapons are acquired (TODO).
