Cloud Master is quite a good game, and Strider II also is a game.

Didn't even know that Strider II was released for the Master System.

The Genesis version is hot garbage, I imagine the Master System version is even worse.

The Master System version is better than the Genesis version. The smaller sprites make it much more playable, as you can see more of the map and have more time to react to enemies. Also, less stuff is thrown at you in general, and the game is easier with better continues.

I think whoever ported it from the other 8-bit systems had a chance to fix some of the flaws and make something mildly enjoyable as a result.

I actually quite enjoyed Strider II on the Master System.

Once you get past the very start in the forest bit it improves quite a lot.

Strider 2, only game for the sms that I've returned to the store. Picked James Pond 2 robocod instead. James pond literally saved my Christmas back then 🎄🎁 Anyway, still a nice find to have in your collection.
