Player's Review

Ristar is a platform video game released by Sega in February 1995 for the Game Gear. While sharing themes and gameplay elements from its main counterpart, Ristar, for the Sega Genesis, it is a largely different game. The game was well received by critics, who felt the gameplay mechanics were transferred over well to the older, aging Game Gear system, but were divided on whether or not the game was worth playing if both versions of the game were available to the consumer.

The Japanese version has an extra level that was cut out from the localized version, specifically at the beginning of the second planet (Fanturn/Terra). All orbs collected, which means a bonus stage is shown after finishing every world. By the way, there is no Super Difficulty mode in this port, also that the passwords from the Genesis original don't work here.
