Personal review

Pretty straightforward and well playable shooter game similar to overhead "run and gun" games, just that you are driving a jeep instead of running around on foot.

Official description

Infrared satellites soaring miles above Earth have spotted dozens of American prisoners of war still trapped on enemy soil. Missing for years but never forgotten, these men must be brought home. But America is in no position to risk an all-out invasion that could prompt retaliation. Instead, the only possible hope for their freedom is a small scale commando raid - code name JACKAL.
