Commando

Description

Several levels await your super-tough Commando in this arcade conversion. Armed with only a standard rifle and a few grenades you must take on hordes of Nazis. Some are wandering around in the open, while others have picked out hiding places, which you must approach from certain angles. Trees, rivers and bridges create a varied combat-like terrain and must be incorporated into your thinking. Extra grenades can be collected, and will definitely be required, as they allow you to kill form distance and thus avoid some enemy shots.

Trivia

The energetic C-64 soundtrack for Commando was written by Rob Hubbard overnight at the offices of Elite Software. Rather impressive for one of the most popular and remixed SID tunes in existence.
