This little-seen coin-op follow-up to the classic Moon Cresta finally hits the NES.

Captured by the Supreme Commander of the Forces of Darkness, you command a sleek star fighter in a battle against the alien entity known as Mandora. Using the capsule power-ups which are scattered across the planet, you can form new, more powerful vehicals, including an invincible Firebird!

People say:

6.0

I love a good shooter and Terra Cresta does a pretty good job of covering all the bases. There are intense shoot-outs, some unique power-up techniques and big Bosses. The graphics could have been better but the game play is decent.

5.0

This would be better with more diversity, but Terra Cresta does have good action and a split-formation fighter that is unique. After a couple of rounds, however, you lose the incentive to play further and the game repeats.

5.0

A good shooter which delivers solid game play and a moderate level of challenge. Terra Cresta is your basic overhead shooting game with original power-up weapons. Customize the power-ups and go to battle. Not outrageous, but a good game.

5.0

You won't find a lot in Terra Cresta to nominate for originality, but if you want a pretty straightforward vertical shooter than this one should do nicely. The graphics are adequate and the play is frentic. The power-ups are nice but not worthwhile.
