"Crest of Wolf," also known as "Ten no Kuro: Ingrid in TURBO" in Japan, is a side-scrolling action game released for the TurboGrafx CD in 1991. Here's a review:

Gameplay (7/10): "Crest of Wolf" offers a traditional beat 'em up experience. Players control Hawk, the main character, as he battles through various stages filled with enemies. The gameplay features standard beat 'em up mechanics, allowing punches, kicks, and special attacks to defeat adversaries.

Graphics & Visuals (6/10): Visually, the game presents detailed character sprites and backgrounds for its time. However, compared to other titles on the TurboGrafx CD, the graphics might not stand out significantly.

Sound & Music (6/10): The game features an adequate soundtrack and sound effects that complement the action. While they serve their purpose, they might not leave a lasting impression due to the limited audio capabilities of the TurboGrafx CD.

Level Design (7/10): "Crest of Wolf" offers diverse and well-structured levels with various enemy encounters. The design provides a decent challenge while progressing through the stages.

Replayability (6/10): The game offers moderate replay value. While the gameplay is enjoyable, the lack of substantial variation or additional modes might limit long-term replayability for some players.

Legacy & Impact (5/10): Despite being a solid beat 'em up game, "Crest of Wolf" hasn't achieved significant recognition or had a substantial impact in the TurboGrafx CD gaming community.

Overall (6/10): "Crest of Wolf" provides a decent beat 'em up experience with satisfying combat mechanics and level designs. While it might not stand out prominently among other titles on the TurboGrafx CD, it remains a respectable addition for enthusiasts of the genre and the console's library.
