Want to kill boredom? This hack is here for you. The custom soundtrack, along with certain ideas in this hack, will make for an interesting experience for this hack of Zero Mission.

When I judged this hack for the Berserker Contest, I gave it a perfect score. This hack deserves such praise even more now that it's fully complete. A refreshing spin on the typical Zero Mission experience, this hack thrusts you into completely new environments with lush custom graphics and well-made custom music. Extremely nonlinear, but fairly balanced (for the most part), repeat playthroughs always have something new to bring to the table. Highly recommended.

WOW! This is one of the best hacks I've ever played. There are just so many positive things I can say here. I made it a point to try and clear it with 100% of items on my first run, but the end of the game kinda caught me off guard. Everything in this hack is just fantastic. The tilesets, the music, the alternate color palettes for enemies, the custom morph ball cannons (reminded me of MP2). All the different areas actually felt like totally different environments, which some hacks don't properly accomplish. The simple change of names to items you pick up was a very nice touch, and the collectable runes mechanic was well done too! Aside from some extremely minor minor issues, like I noticed one of the crystals in Mons had the top half covering Samus while the bottom half didn't, this is basically a flawless hack. Some items were extremely easy to find, while others made you literally run around the map to get them (kinda like Spider Ball in Metroid II), which I did enjoy. Now to find the final items...

This is the most impressive one in terms of ZM. The music and bosses are awesome.

Great music, great areas, not much more to say. Probably the best long ZM hack today.

This was a damn cool hack. I even translated it into Italian for however much I could without going through graphics editing.
The music was superb. Areas were great. Every room crafted great. Congrats on the whole team.
Only part that was kinda "ugh" moment were those rooms in Turrim with crumbling blocks. Nothing bad just took some tries to do xD pheraps cause I didn't have the item from Arx to help me through?
Full of surprises and cool items names to top it all!

no video yet, i'll update when the lp starts.

This hack was more fun to play than the original. No problem areas and great theming. Best hack I have probably played.

A neat little hack that suits the portable Zero Mission.
Areas felt unique and memorable, and exploration was well paced and pretty open. Cool surprises every now and then.
Music was alright, graphics were really nice to look at.
Most secrets were fun. There were some optional item puzzles I have minor nit picks with, but are hardly worth mentioning.

If you're like me and haven't seen or played many Exploration ZM hacks, I'd say give this one a shot.

I really liked this hack, I'm not a pro Metroid player but this one wasn't too hard, but it wasn't too easy either; I liked the challenge where you have to do some solid platforming, like on these crumbling blocks (and I like that you respawn right at the beginning when you fail, so it doesn't become tiresome) or few times when I had to use bomb jump or wall jump. Items are placed neatly, graphics are great and music is catchy. Overall it does feel like a new title or expansion. Few years ago I couldn't find any Zero Mission or Fusion hacks like that, only stuff like removing map or these helper statues etc., so I'm glad that Scrolls Six exist. Thank you authors and I can't wait to see more of your hacks!

Soundtrack is a bop. Good hack, go play.

Excellent. Clever puzzles, unique areas, and non-linear progression. An excellent soundtrack from JRP elevates the experience. If you are a fan of GBAtroids, I strongly recommend giving this a playthrough. My only complaint would be that Charlie was a little too tanky.

This romhack is spectacular. The environments are extremely unique and interesting. The music is pretty great. The additional bosses were an excellent surprise, and I think anyone who is considering playing this should download it and give it a go!

It's a really solid and fun hack that's very open and unique. My only gripe would be it feels pretty straight forward without a ton of unique concepts or puzzles throughout. It's a really strong 4 orbs for me. It does nothing wrong even if it never wowed me gameplay wise. Thanks for the really solid hack to all involved.

Not bad, not bad at all.

The soundtrack gave me some serious corny Amiga vibes. Apologies to the composer, but I was laughing 80% of the time (it was great, I mean to say).

The custom tilesets are pretty nice, though the room designs felt a bit perfunctory and slightly repetitive in terms of gameplay/architecture (though as a contest hack that's perfectly understandable). Area designs weren't bad, but about halfway through I could see pretty clearly how I was being kettled by the gray doors and such.

The best areas (by far) were the upper and lower halves of Mons.
