Deep Strike
_Deep Strike_ is set in World War 2, and you form part of a squadron
attempting a dangerous mission of destroying a Nazi fuel depot. Your fighter
plane is armed with guns; a team of bombers are out there with you, with one
always in front.
Initially you will face a few planes flying towards you. red planes shoot at
you, and later there are black ‘suicide planes’ which aim to take you down
Kamikaze style, and ‘Blue Max’ planes which are extra-tough.
After the first minute or so another challenge is added, in the shape of hills
to fly around or over. After this, you reach the bombing zone, in which you
guide the bombers behind you and instruct them which sites to bomb.
The game is viewed from the cockpit, with displays telling you of how much
damage you and the bomber have taken, and whether you are steering in the
right direction. A map is build in. The controls can be set in two ways, for
‘up’ on the joystick either equaling ‘move upwards’ or ‘dive’ (as on a real
plane).
