Digital Press - Classic Video Games
There are two ways to tackle Power Lords: aggressively, by shooting everything in sight, or conservatively, by avoiding everything. Each round concludes rapidly, ranging from 10 seconds to a full minute. It is possible to rack up a high score by not shooting anything and allowing the rounds to fly by. While this may sound easy, keep in mind that you only get ONE LIFE. Overall, Power Lords offers more depth but won't hold one's interest for an entire afternoon.

The Video Game Critic
You can move your ship off one side on the screen and appear on the opposite side, and you'll want to utilize this strategy to maintain your distance from the cobra. A gravitational ray kicks in during the later stages, adding to the difficulty. I love the nifty graphics, but they can't hide the mediocre gameplay.
