I could never kill the final boss in this game, but loved to play it.

The best Metroid alternative for Atari!

Draconus was simply amazing! One of the best games for Atari.

A bit difficult to get into, but it looks great and the sound effects are fantastic. The best part: no matter how he dies -- hit a bird, falling too far -- his head explodes. Why? Because Draconus has a terribly unstable head, is my guess.

With Mission and Robbo its the best game for Atari 800 - great graphics, very good gameplay, excelent music. Still good in these days.
