Personal review

This is basic gun shooting game for the Famicom and based on a Taito arcade machine. Its the time of the prohibition in America and you shoot lots of gangsters in New York for whatever reason. The game is controlled with the standard controller and that works suprisingly well. However the game itself is pretty boring, the backgrounds lack colors and detail and the music is very annoying. In order to beat the game you have to play through every scene five times! Except a different end boss at the last stage every playthrough is exaclty the same only with a few more of the same enemies.
