But this needs to be played with a controller as well. ### 4/5 — Good Old Arcade *2019-09-07, version 4.0.2* Captures the feel of the arcade including great graphics and a BOSS Title cart. ### 4/5 — Great game but… *2017-10-03, version 3.0.1* I love this game, but I think it would be totally awesome if it supported Apple TV. I would buy most of the Sega Forever games if the were on Apple TV. ### 2/5 — Wasn't good to begin with. Give us Space Harrier 1! *2017-09-30, version 3.0.1* This game was a sucker launch game for the Genesis. You got excited cause the original arcade was great with a rock solid port on the Sega Master System. New system, new Space Harrier? Of course I'll buy it. All the bad controls and poor frame rate are part of the original not the port. How's about a remake? Or even a reboot? ### 5/5 — Nice! *2013-08-06, version 2.0.0* Hard, but fun! Bring us more genesis! ### 3/5 — Works again *2012-12-24, version 2.0.0* Hey SEGA do us a favor. Make these genesis games for ipad, full screen and running smooth, and also... ...you really ought to just have a SEGA GENESIS standalone app and all the genesis games should be add on purchases. You could spruce it up too with some cool animations of someone putting the cart in an animation genesis console on screen......plus you could also make a fun item store. People could also download what model genesis they want to see on screen, like the original, or 2 model, or majesco's genesis 3, or the nomad. Or Japanese models. Please sega. Make a Genesis app like this.... It's a killer good idea. ### 5/5 — Sega Rocks *2012-11-30, version 1.0.0* First off, yes, guys...this game does need ios6 support. It played perfectly before then, as did all of the Sega classics. Luckily, Sega started updating them and only a few more need done. 5 stars because its a great Sega Genesis game (not the arcade original). I can understand people leaving bad reviews. But, it's obvious Sega is aware of the problem and working to solve it. Sega has always been an amazing company and some of the most fun games on the App Store are as a result of them. Not a fanboy, just hoping they do add iOS6 support, and giving them praise along the way:). ### 3/5 — Update please *2012-10-17, version 1.0.0* I haven't gotten to play it yet, cause it crashes every time. But 3d world runner for Nintendo used to be one of my favs. This seems to model that. Can't wait to play. ### 1/5 — Game doesn't work on iphone5 *2012-09-30, version 1.0.0* Title says it all. Paid for this game only to find out it doesn't work. ### 5/5 — Great!! *2012-08-20, version 1.0.0* Highly recommended if ur a old school gamer!!! Very fun!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Lag! *2019-06-03, version 4.0.2* Massive lag and no turbo fire on the IPhone XS Max. I guess the iPhone isn’t powerful enough to emulate the game. Rofl. ### 1/5 — Rating not for actual game, of course... *2017-10-07, version 3.0.1* Why do I have to restore my purchase every time I play this game? I didn’t have to do it before this Sega Forever thing started. As for the actual game-it’s great, being Space Harrier and all. **Developer response:** Hi there, sorry to hear that you are having issues with the game, can you send an email to help@sega.net with more information as well as what device and OS you are using so that we can investigate this issue. also please list the game you are having issues with in the message. ### 1/5 — Yuck *2017-09-16, version 3.0.0* Controls like poo ### 1/5 — Busted emulation *2017-09-16, version 3.0.0* Music crackles and skips. Framerate is terrible and the game stutters and slows down every few seconds. I'm a huge fan of the original Sega Genesis game and this doesn't even come close to feeling like the original. Even my 2010 version on iPod Touch plays better than this, and I'm using a 2017 iPad. Hope one day they use a better emulator for these games because this one has to be the worst so far. ### 1/5 — Deleted 2 minutes in *2017-09-15, version 3.0.0* Horrible play control! Not worth the time to download. ### 1/5 — Jerky controls, iffy sound *2015-02-12, version 2.0.0* Won't feel like playing your genesis or game gear. Avatar's movement isn't smooth - moves in discrete units almost like an old LCD handheld game. Music playback seems garbled, but I never played space harrier ii, so I don't know. Not as stylish as space harrier I. You'll be dissatisfied with the controls. ### 1/5 — Not work *2012-11-11, version 1.0.0* It crashes on iphone 5 when I try to start. Never had a chance to play once. Sad. ### 1/5 — Please Fix!!!! *2012-11-08, version 1.0.0* Was looking forward to this game bit it crashes very time on my iPhone 5 iOS 6. Please fix this or give me my $0.99 back ### 1/5 — Sure would like to play it *2012-10-19, version 1.0.0* One of my all time favorite games... But it crashes every time I open it. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2012-10-17, version 1.0.0* iOS 6 iPhone 4S would love to play this, I remember playing it at the movie theater as a kid, even then it was a little dated but I was amazed by it. Amazing game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Space Harrier *2022-09-29, version 4.1.3* Vulture:I love Space Harrier as a kid couldn’t believe I was able to find it. It’s old school. ### 5/5 — UUUH It IS A GREAT GAME *2019-06-14, version 4.0.2* I wait for add to come in ### 5/5 — Toe jam and earl *2017-10-02, version 3.0.1* Please keep these classics coming bring us. Bubsy the cat and shining forces ### 5/5 — Great great. ALL of SEGA Forever *2017-10-01, version 3.0.1* All of the SF releases have been great. I am looking forward to seeing 32 and 128 bit generation releases! Looking forward to the entire Virtua (model 1, 2 and 3) series games, whether arcade, Saturn or Dreamcast conversion. Thank you, SEGA ### 5/5 — Going to need an iOS 11 update on most of the games *2017-09-29, version 3.0.1* This game was awesome, reminds me of the arcade game from back then! But since I had updated my phone the game started slowing down on iOS 11 compared to iOS 10 and this wasn’t the only game either affected by it. Giving it 5 stars because it’s a cool game and hope more retro titles (streets of rage, toejam and earl, etc.) comes to mobile. ### 5/5 — PLEASE!!!! *2017-09-16, version 3.0.0* Please continue to put out the classics. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE ### 5/5 — Remember this one! *2017-09-15, version 3.0.0* So many memories! Love this game ### 5/5 — Yeet *2017-09-15* Yeet 😎 ### 5/5 — Thank you, maybe add this *2017-09-14, version 3.0.0* Add gain ground and 2 player on it. ### 5/5 — SEGA FOREVER! *2017-09-14, version 3.0.0* So happy to SEGA for keeping these games alive.
