From Alf Yngve, comes this stunning action packed game inspired by some
classic combat games, such as Green Beret, Gryzor, etc. Although this is not a run and jump game. The game also features combat style music on the front end. Also two player control and scoring has been bolted together to one game which saves you having to change your joystick port to play each part.

The story so far: A group of rogue marines are planning to set a big act of terrorism on to your own territory and city. After the alert, civilians just got escorted out of their homes and sent into prison camps. The terrorists
also captured you and threw you into a cell. Unknown to the terrorists you
were wearing a tracker. So the allied forces sent in one of their best helicopters. Checked the radar signal, shot the guard from outside your cell. One of the marines arms a bazooka and blasts the cell in which you are free. You arm yourself with the guard's rife with plenty of bullets and set off on a dangerous mission The NIGHT RAID.

Using a joystick in either port, you are the escaped captive, who is out to
get revenge on the terrorists. Your mission is to raid their camps, and shoot anything that moves on sight. Watch out though the enemy forces never give up and are most definitely on the watch out for escapes. This game is split into two parts.

Part 1 - The ground battle

After the helicopter above broke you out of the cells. You plan a revenge attack on the terrorists. Simply by sneaking past them and blasting them with your rifle. Unfortunately the terrorists have backup and are keeping watch of your every step so you must shoot your way to freedom. To help gain stamina, pick up medical packs the more you pick up, the more likely you'll get an
extra life back. As soon as you escape from the enemy camp it is time to enter the helicopter and get the heck out of that awful prison camp.

Part 2 - The air battle

You escape into the helicopter but find that you are being watched. So armed with bullets you must shoot the enemies airborne and grounded to avoid getting recaptured. If you make your escape from the air battle you will make it back to your HQ, where the rest of the allied forces will destroy the terrorist base, and you get back to your family.

Good luck soldier!
