A pretty cool and fun hack. I, like many others, think that in Metroid exploring is an important thing in the game, getting lost and having no idea where you are going gives a great experience, and Hyper Metroid gives you that kind of experience.
I always got lost in each area of the game, I even got Power ups that I didn't know if I was supposed to get them at that moment or it was later in the game, and I love that. After getting some upgrades, in Crateria there was an area that take you to Maridia and I used the Mockball trick to get there and I got the Gravity Suit even before I had super missiles.
It has a decent difficulty and in my opinion it is not annoying, although the bosses, I felt that the last ones were quite complicated. The 15-gate mechanic for the Tourian was something completely unique. The ROM has a very good level design, a free progression (for what I’ve seen and played) and many other things but I don’t wanna fill you up with a lot of text.
8.8/10. Good hack.

I enjoyed every aspect of the game. The level and map design, the item progretion and difficulty.
I love the "gothic" aspect of the hack, the ambience.
Something a didnt like at all is that the map is to compacted and big.
The feelling that you are always lost is beautiful, that is something good about the map being so big and compacted.
The final scape was to easy to be honest, i expected something harder knowing that the hack is a little bit hard because you dont have any suit upgrades, exept for the Chozo Armor. The Chozo Armor design is quite neat in my opinion.
I give this hack a 9.4/10. Its pretty good.
