Editor note
FZ-002. Rarity 2 Common+. North America NTSC. 1 player or 2 players alternating.
This is very much like the the original Atari 2600 version. But there are a few changes. The riverbanks are no longer sharp straight edges, but steep craggy slopes. And tanks will shoot at you from land or bridges. These new enemies are venerable to attack while on bridges. Combat balloons are also a new threat. And there are some scenery changes.
