Tails' Skypatrol is a horizontally scrolling shooter that was only released in Japan.
+ Feels like a shooter and a pinball title as you time ring throws to attack enemies and activate parts of the environment.+ The stages allow you to tackle them in numerous ways thanks to the multiple layout routes on offer.
- The opening Training Area does a horrific job of teaching the mechanics and instead relies on you failing repeatedly.
- Trial-and-error never lets up, as you're forced to memorise large sections in the hope of grinding through to a checkpoint.
- Only five stages are on offer meaning the game is very short and has little in the way of replay value.
- The collision detection is poor and you'll occasionally fail to collect an item despite flying straight through it.
- Bosses feature barely any imagination, as they all play exactly the same despite the opening battle being a snooze fest.
