Second Earth: GRATIA (Jaleco, 1996)

Post by CIT »

Anybody spend some time with this shooter for Jaleco's Mega System 32?

The graphics certainly look great, remind me a bit of Brikinger for Neo Geo CD, but the game is almost never mentioned and seems pretty rare to come by.

Any opinions?

I've played a bit on Mame. The graphics indeed are awesome, but the gameplay didn't catch with me at all. Not bad, but not great either.

But like probably everyone else, I played just a couple of games...

I used to own it. Pretty cool as far as not so common games go, but it wasn't enthralling enough to compel me to keep it. I think I got it for like $50 w/ mobo. That reminds me I need to get my act together and organize my Mega32 cataloging...

I like it...though I wasn't too fond of the need to bomb ground targets. ...never did make it past that damn tank, though...
