Description

Torpedo Run is an action game based on the Death Star trench run from the movie Star Wars. The player must outmaneuver enemy TIE Fighters to reach the end of the famous trench and fire their photon torpedo to make the Death Star explode. The keypad is used to move the ship in eight different directions, but the player's ship must be directly aligned with the vent shaft at the end to be able to destroy the target.
