Arnie 2
shoot'em up game for Commodore 64, 1993
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fast reflexes and a lust for violence are required for success here. Your
average muscleman shoots and bombs his way through four enemy-infested
territories: Shut down a chemical plant by blowing up enough pipeline valves.
Clear an airfield from enemy soldiers, tanks and helicopters. Climb from
battleship to battleship in a hostile harbor. And finally, rescue as many
prisoners as possible from a jungle POW camp.
Naturally, the levels are crawling with enemies: from simple infantry armed
with rifles, mortars or rocket launchers to MG teams, missile batteries and
tanks. Most of the opponents are stationary and stolidly fire in a single
direction; however, foxholes spew out cannon-fodder at a constant rate. To
destroy such nests or efficiently dispatch groups of soldiers, Arnie has a
(limited) supply of grenades. Some deceased foes drop more powerful weapons
as well as invaluable first aid kits and extra lives.
