    ZPF is a fun little game that people with retro-nostalgia will find thing to enjoy in terms of its presentation. However, despite of the modernisation of some of the parts of the game the mechanics don’t reveal a lot of depth.

    As an enjoyable yet standard 16-bit shoot 'em up, ZPF is a merely passable shooter albeit with some fleeting moments of fun here and there.
