I'm thinking about picking this up, is it worth it? Please help me decide.

Coryoon is great side shooter on the pce. Sprites are medium size and the colors are vibrant. Difficulty I thinks is moderate. The first two levels are a piece a cake, but from stage three it turns things up a notch. The challege should keep you occupied for a week, or least that is how long it took me to beat it.

This game does have one major flaw, you can get easily confused in this game. Score items are fruits that appear after killing enemies. Most often the fruits like to cover most of the screen, which makes it difficult for the player to discern enemy from fruits. I often end up running into the enemy because of it.

You can't go wrong with this game. It's fun and will satisfy your shmup craving for a while, but not a must-buy.

I find it very fun and cute (both graphics and music), although I'd say the difficult is lower than moderate. More like very easy.

You might want to think harder about whether or not you want to pick it up depending on the price. I think a ballpark of $65 or a little more is what this usually goes for. That's $65 you could be spending on something else.

However, that being said, I don't really regret buying my copy since it's nice to play something relaxing once in a while.

I only played it emulated.

I'll just second what has been said, the game is very fun to play, but incredibly easy. I think I finished it in my 2nd or 3rd go.

I can't believe this game would cost $65, I bought mine for $25 three years ago.

I guess for difficulty, mileage will vary. I found Coryoon to be a little tougher than easy, or maybe I'm just not that good.

Yup...easy as hell. True about the shots and enemies being obscured. It's a fun little romp, but that's about it.

Its not a bad game, but the most unbalanced shmup i have played.
You loose 5 lives at the boss and earn about 10 for beating it!
This makes the game very easy.

I've been thinking about getting Coryoon for quite a while, and when I first got interested about a year ago the lowest price anywhere was around 90$. After all, Coryoon is among the rarest PCE games out there (good luck trying to find a copy for sale anywhere). So I think you got incredibly lucky paying only 25$.

Anyway, I just bought it for 73$, which is probably a pretty good price.
