Classic Game Room HD - DARIUS TWIN for Super Nintendo review

Classic Game Room HD reviews DARIUS TWIN for Super Nintendo from 1991. This is a horizontally scrolling side scroller SHMUP for the Super Nintendo from Taito. One of many in the popular line of Darius games, blast sea creatures, lobsters, fish, underwater alien space ships and octopi into bits with your space ship. Play one player or 2 player co-op on screen at the same time. Darius is challenging and plays well on the 16 bit SNES, is it one of the best SNES shmup shooters? CGR doesn't care for the music or bland visuals that much. If you played Darius Gaiden on the Sega Saturn you may not either, but the gameplay is somewhat similar. Power up your space ship and blast everything that moves, collect weapon and shield upgrades and rack up arcade points. This CGR review of Darius Gaiden has gameplay from Darius Gaiden on SNES showing game play from this side scrolling SHMUP in action.

I knew a kid in school named Darius, and he was a twin.
