Do you know what Rastan’s biggest problem is? It’s not the endless cheap shots. This is a coin-op. It’d be weird if it didn’t have those. The #1 issue is that the bosses don’t scale right. I died plenty on bosses 1 – 3, but then I started wasting bosses in a few seconds. The last boss took me all of six seconds and change to defeat. By the way, everyone warned me how hard the last level was, but Rastan had run out of ideas before the finale and, since it keeps going back to the same handful of predictable patterns and obstacles, I ran through the final stage making save states I never needed, then beat the last boss in six seconds and change.
