Description
FZ-007. Rarity 3 scarce. North America NTSC. 1 player only.
Roderick Hero needs to rescue the minors before his energy pack runs out. You have a personal copter device, laser and dynamite to aid you. Watch out for creatures, lava flows and rock barriers. The latter 2 obstacles are most efficiently destroyed using dynamite. While most versions of HERO simulated analog control by adding a power curve to you thrust, there was no need on the 5200; thrust of your copter-pack is fully analog.
