Buy this game... There's no excuse not to own it.
Although I was only 6-7 at the time I got this game, I still remember how it happened. My Mom was willing to get me one game, and I had the choice between Ristar or Sonic the Hedgehog 3. I chose Ristar, and I haven't loo... Read Full Review

Only problem with this game is it came late in the Genesis era.
Ristar is basically overlooked...but he's not underappreciated. Anyone who was able to play this game knows what a true delight it is. This game definitely rivals Sonic's works. It seems a bit awkward how he attacks, but... Read Full Review

Of all that I've seen for the Genesis, this has to be the Mona Lisa of them all.
This game is so beautiful! The graphics make me feel like I'm in a cartoon and it is hard to see a scenery that is a sight for sore eyes. In addition to looks, Ristar seems to be the most original character I know. He is... Read Full Review
