The game is played from an overhead perspective across scrolling stages. Most of the action happens on foot, where the player shoots enemy soldiers, avoids heavy fire, and rescues hostages. Certain sections involve driving a car to ram through opposition or survive vehicle-heavy encounters. Progress depends on movement, crowd control, learning enemy placements, and choosing safer lines through branching or hazardous areas.
Hero
The unnamed lone operative sent behind enemy lines to crush the criminal organization and rescue captives.
Destroy fast-moving enemy vehicles first so they do not trap you from multiple directions. During on-foot sections, stay near edges and corners when possible to limit incoming fire. Do not rush into hostage zones before removing nearby threats. In driving sections, use momentum to break through crowded passages, but watch for enemies entering from the sides. Learning stage layouts greatly improves survival.
