Hack description

Sega did an awful work on this early title released for the Megadrive.
This patch aims to make it much closer to the arcade original.
Still many sprite drawing erros and bad palette assignation that could only be fixed using game disassembly.
Enjoy.

The way it should have looked upon release.Electric_Lizard2023-03-15Version 1.0

Considerable improvement over the original colors.

Monster Lair finally looks like a Genesis game and not a Master System game.

A few of the levels even look better than their arcade counterparts.

This is now the definitive version of this game for the Genesis.
