Game of the Month: July 2024 - Magical Chase
« on: July 04, 2024, 08:07:39 AM »
MAGICAL CHASE

Yep, Magical Chase. Alright you ballers. Get out your original copies cause it's holy grail time! I'm going to be a peasant and use an Everdrive lol!  The history with this game is legendary. Some say it's overrated. Maybe. I personally don't think so. Even if it wasn't such a rare title and money I'd still put it up there as one of the better shooters on the PCE/Turbo. The graphics are really damn good. I like the music and it plays pretty well. Some of the changes for the US title I like over the JP version but not everything. It's been a while and I don't remember all the changes so I'm going to clear both to check em out. Yeah I could hit up BT's old page going over it, but I'd rather just play it. Hope you all have a good 4th of July and have some game time so a shooter would be good for those that have 30 minutes to chill. Lol. Enjoy!

Not a particular favorite, but still good to play now and again.  The graphics are indeed good, and any shooter that gives me a health bar and let's me smack the ground without dying is worth the trip.

Great cute shooter! Overly prized by collectors, so easy call play with flashcart or repro. Years ago, I was playing it while a friend was over, that had no real knowledge of obey, and they even remarked on how good it was. They ended up buying a modded out Duo later on :)

As geise wrote, good game to get in a 30 mins here and there throughout the month.

Awesome! I've tested it on a couple handheld emulators, but now I have a reason to really dig into it!

Totally botched playing Chase this month...even with all the tech available be able to play it, I still managed to only get a few games in.

I'm gonna play Magical Chase for October.

Seems fitting.
