The problem with the gameplay is that you have a health bar, but the game doesn't really allow you to care about your health. You can easily blindfold yourself and rush to the enemy and would still probably end up alive. Also you don't have to attack anyone neither. The game lacks the feeling of punishment(?) When you can just pass through enemies straight to the boss I feel like (this is a personal thing) you really just wanna do that you know? Besides that, boss designs are cool, but you can really just rush to them and press the attack button, except for like maybe 2 bosses you don't really have to have any quote on quote "strategy" (like switching weapons for that boss). So that's a con for me. Since your health doesn't really decrease, you can just blindly rush and hit any boss till they die.

It's not necessarily a "story focused" game but it's decent for a gameboy platform game. My mistake was that this is my first Mega Man game, the ending probably would've felt better if I played at least the X series. Or I would've at least known the main character.

Overall a fun experience, except for the bomb defusing part and spesifically that area, would recommend.
