1942

Description:

The year is 1942, and the war rages on in the Pacific.
Intelligence just delivered an important report about the enemy air force gathering in a secret location.
And now is it the perfect time to launch a surprise attack to try to inflict maximum damage on the enemy's military forces.

However, to maintain the element of surprise, you will be carrying out this daring mission alone, in your Lockheed P-38 Lightning fighter plane.
Your aircraft carrier will take you as close as possible, and from there, you'll have to pilot your plane skillfully.

You must destroy squadrons of enemy planes of all sizes in an epic non-stop dogfight.
Land periodically on your aircraft carrier to refuel and take to the skies again to continue your mission.

Can you survive long enough to make a significant dent in the enemy forces, and help your homeland win the war ?

Will it be victory, or be defeat ?
It's in your skillful hands !!!

The Super Game Module is for the AY background music, and the ColecoVision's native SN sound chip is for the sound effects.
