River Raid

Description:

Code name: " River of no return ".

An everchanging, everchallenging water fortress of enemy activity is your destination.

A series of vital enemy bridges is your target.
Unfortunately, there's only one way at 'em: straight up the river, through the thick of blockading Tankers, Choppers and Jets.

Threacherous bays reek of peril.
Icy currents promise danger.

Brilliantly detailed graphics and outrageous sound effects are guaranteed.

Your safety's not..

Your Mission Is...

To score as many points as possible, by destroying enemy Battleships, Helicopters, Fueldepots, Jets, Tanks, hot air Balloons and Bridges,
-before your Jet crashes or runs out of fuel.
