I love this game, I thought it was pretty fun and overall great. I never beat it but maybe now I can. |
| When our boys were preteen, they fell in love with this game when I brought it home from our local computer game store. It's very similar to River Raid, but this time you have a pterodactyl (now there's a mouthful) shooting laser blasts against spiders. You can increase/decrease your vertical progress, and X-Y axis is complete as the lair continues to scroll to the bottom of the screen. The graphics are crude, and the audio f/x are weak, but the game is compelling at the same time mindless. Like River Raid, this is a thumb-number. I recommend it. |
