Joshua D. ★★★★★

I've been hunting for this Hu-Card for ages, and the bow-and-arrow gameplay is so much more fun than I expected. Rescuing the kiwi chicks keeps each level feeling fresh, and the colorful Taito-style graphics are a real treat on the PC Engine.

Samuel A. ★★★★★

Finally, a classic Taito shooter that doesn't feel like it's just reusing old assets—the bright, chunky sprites and that weird kiwi bird's floaty jump physics took some getting used to, but the tight bow-and-arrow controls make up for it. Really fun to see how it inspired later games like Liquid Kid

Andrew ★★★★★

The kiwi bird’s floaty jump physics took some getting used to, but the colorful stages and fast arrows make it a blast. I’ve already sunk a few evenings into rescuing the chicks, and the Hu Card loads up instantly on my PC Engine.
