Like any Data East game it looks great, this really acts like a homage to James Bond in everything other than name. The villains resemble Odd Job and Jaws, as well as a stage looking something like the secret base from Moonraker to the Golden Gun featuring in the game.

Gameplay is very similar to Rolling Thunder, a side scroller game with a floor and higher level, there’s also a few water stages where the Spy harpoons sharks and other divers.

Being a Data East game the screens quickly fill with enemies and the quarters keep dropping. It’s a quick game, however I just can’t see how a casual gamer can make it through without burning through a lot of coin. It’s unfairly hard!
