    Blaster Master Zero is an excellent surprise. The Japanese of the Inti Creates studio have managed to propose a remake that is faithful enough to the original while being sufficiently different to arouse the interest of both old and new players. Exploration is pleasant and fluid and avoids the pitfall of unnecessary back and forth travelling. The increasing power of your character and tank is enjoyable, and the difficulty is well balanced. Indeed, the latter offers a kinder experience than the original while keeping you on your toes. Once the game is over, you will only have one desire: start Blaster Master Zero 2 and 3.
