Warashi's late-to-the-party Naomi shooting game ported to the DC. Cave fans will be pleased to find a very small hitbox, a multiplier, and a risk versus rewards scoring system. They will probably not be so pleased with the doujin-esque graphics. Other than the traditional shot and bomb, you can "capture" enemey ships, swing them around and throw them at other ships. Doing this lowers the multiplier, but it is raised by picking up the gems they leave behind. Figuring out the highest scoring spots can be tricky, and there are various strategies for scoring. Extends are at 50 and 100 million, so learning the scoring system will help with a clear. There's a bizarre rank system in which the better you do, the forms the boss has. This of course, means more points. The DC version has all of the arcade modes, as well as an arrange mode. The limited edition shown here comes with the soundtrack, and a rather thin settei shiryoushuu.
