Critical Reception
- See Physical Scans for review scores
The original home computer releases were critically acclaimed, particularly the Sharp X68000 version, winning a number of awards from Japanese publications. However, the Mega Drive port was not as well received. Japanese reviewers did not consider it as good as the original computer versions, while European reviewers considered it to be almost unplayable with Japanese text. However, Electronic Gaming Monthly's review of the unreleased English translation, Star Quest, was generally positive.[1]
