    If Prison City released for NES, I imagine that it would be on many gamers' top 10 lists for the console's library; it's retro done right.

    A great retro-style shooter and platformer with authentic presentation and design, featuring well-implemented ideas and accessibility options for everyone, though occasional imprecise controls may lead to moments of frustration. Highly enjoyable and recommended overall.
