Altered Beast for Android
I think i would have been better to play the arcade version but its still fun for a bit. The touch controls work good but i hate having to use them my 8bitdo zero controller was recognized but all i could do was start and pause jump and kick. Kinda hard to kick ass if you cant move. Over all great idea just not that well executed.
This is a great port of altered beast. Some people are experiencing issues depending on there phone model. I have not ran into any lag, only sound issues which were fixed in the latest update. My only complaint is there is no custom button layout option. I am using an S5 for anyone interested.
Out of all the versions of altered beast that currently exist, this is one of the worst. The sound is fine but the pixelation is a bit fuzzy and I even experienced some slow down. If you want this game, just get it on some other place like PC or virtual console or something, at least then there would be no adds and better game emulation. One last thing, why does Sega need to know my location in order to start the game? I don't understand why this permission is necessary and it is kinda sketchy.
Sega rules man. It's like my pubity all over again minus the pimples and uncontrollable erections. My ipega controller works great, thankyou for good times and more to come. I really want to cry I'm so excited.
Awkward touch controls and even though it says you can play with a pad, it doesn't recognize input from it other than the kick. Pressing any other button on the pad pauses the game. It's a shame because I was hoping for better. Since it's new you'd expect bugs and I hope the pad but gets sorted soon. I use madcatz ctlr micro
Compulsory, screen-filling ad abuse. Start the game? Screen-filling ad that you can't skip. Want to save? Screen-filling ad that you can't skip. Literally anything you do in the menus be will trip an ad, which burned 5% of my battery in under 1 minute of gameplay. That being said, it's obvious that these are not free. You are hammered with ads until you came and buy the app. I'm going to go ahead and uninstall this now.
Controls aren't the best yet, but cool to have an official version. Oddly enough some of the un official emulators have better controls. When they figure out how to better separate the game space and control space they'll get a 5
Sega forever right now is a massive joke! They did not care for authenticity at all and this is just another choppy, unfaithful cash grab of a port made in cheap-ass unity. They are preying on the uninformed masses who do not know how the original game is supposed to be. DO NOT support this or any other Sega forever game or they will keep doing it!
Why not the superior arcade version, Sega? Don't worry I'm pretty sure modern androids and iPhones have enough power to handle it
Perfect prot of the original and I love the on line feature to it even tho I hate its only Facebook users only. But its acceptable for what its coming with.
Oh... Oh, God. Okay. So I actually love this game. One of my earliest memories with a Sega console. I suck at it, but I love it. So why have I rated this version a three-star product? Well, the first time I booted it up, it soft-locked my phone. When I did finally get it running, the emulation was choppy and laggy. I'm on an S7 Edge. That may be last year's phone, but it's hardly old. And it's having issues running a game from 1989. Especially disappointing because I immediately dropped money on the ad-free version. I really hope this is not Sega's best foot forward, or they might have just doomed the entire line.
Blast from the past! I grew up with Sega Genesis... I love this! how about Golden Axe next?
How can Sega be so bad at emulating their own stuff? I'm on a new phone and the emulation stutters enough to be detrimental.
I grew up with this game, first in the arcade and eventually on the GENESIS and I'm excited to have it again. Plays just like I remember!
My game played completely lag free. The controls were a bit of a struggle though. All in all a fairly good emulation.
Awesome game controls take a sec to get use to but this game is fun and hard as hell! A must for any retro gamer fan
I have a Galaxy S6 Edge. The emulator works great, no lag. The ads are ok. They need money, it's free. I don't like the controls but works for a touch device. They can't do better than this. I miss the achievements. People are complaining too much. It's better than I supposed to be.
Sega Forever has made my dreams come true. They have the games that I want. Having played the arcade version of this game I am very impressed
The ad free isn't completely ad free. Kind of crappy if you ask me. It's also a pain in the butt to start playing.
Works a lot better that Comix Zone. This one will stay on my device, but not for long, 90MB of storage is just to much for one Sega game.
Honestly.....Sega is one of the best gaming franchise to date. Giving back to there loyal core customers. Love u SEGA
Plays good on my LG V20. Would have preferred arcade version over Genesis version. Needs full screen like Sonic
Great to have the real Megadrive version. Game plays perfectly on P9, controls well and everything feels right. Brilliant!
Controls are lag city. Come on Sega. Hire an emulator programmer for God sake.
It tries to keep you from exiting the game. Not cool!
Make better support for third-party controllers and this would be the best way to play Sega games on a phone
The best controller (DS4 with usb wireless adaptor) does not work with these new SEGA app(s), all other android games work flawleslly with this controller.
Doesn't works with my 8bitdo FC30Pro controller. And I know its not my controller's fault because works like a charm in sonic 1.
I dont know what people are moaning about here. Sega could of charged for the game AND put adds in on top. They've got to make their money some way, but they generously put it free. This is a classic amongst others. SEGA helped make my childhood special. Thank you Sega
Plays great on my Galaxy S7 Edge. Brings back memories. Good stuff Sega!
No unlimited lives option? C'mon Sega this was also an arcade game!
No lag, don't know what these people are complaining about, running this game on my honor 8, it works perfectly fine
The controls are really bad. Constantly pressing backwards and going forward, very annoying
I like very much sega forever. But it would be much better if you did it on the nintendo switch :)
Somehow the music makes the frame rate drops a lot. Turning it off helps, but where's the fun in that?
l gave five stars when you fix Bluetooth controller all I can do is jump and pause
I never beat alter beast as a kid ,now I'm 36 and have a chance to finish it.thank you
Too darn hard, can't continue from where you died.
Great game please Bring back BEYOND OASIS!!!

Game needs better controller support. My 8bitdo controller works with Sonic and Crazy Taxi (the games that came out before Sega Forever), but they don't work for any of the newly released games. The controller is just recognised and only one button works. Otherwise when using the touch-screen controls everything is well laid out and great to use. The graphics are OK, but I wish they just stuck to the same layout and menu (with cartridge art that could be changed to any region) that Sonic 1 on mobile has along with the updated wide screen graphics. Sega Forever just needs some work, hopefully with future updates we'll get something worth playing over just emulating like everyone has already been doing on mobile for the last 10ish years.
