  • Arcade
  • Run and gun
  • Local co-op

A 2000 arcade run and gun in 2D: five missions with alternative routes, prisoners to rescue, vehicles such as a tank or an elephant, and an extremely long final mission. Supports co-op on the same PC.

Why play it now

When you fancy an arcade session with someone beside you: local co-op is the best way to play it.

Who it's for

For anyone after demanding arcade action with detailed pixel art: on the default difficulty it's brutally hard.

When not to pick it

If you want a long game: there are five missions, and the last one, up to half an hour long, drags on forever.

What it offers

  • Combat / action: 95 out of 100
