Commando

YOU ARE ABOUT TO BEGIN A HIGHLY SECRET MISSION
You are a crack soldier with special training. You have been given a highly secret mission, and are about to enter into fierce guerrilla warfare! The mission is to a annihilate the enemy and to rescue important captives. To do this you must destroy the enemy base, which is said to be impregnable.
The battles you will fight take place in several areas requiring various attack techniques. Your weapons consist of a machine gun with unlimited shots, and a limited supply of hand grenades, which you may replenish by taking from the enemy.
GOOD LUCK!

* Use JOYSTICK to manoeuvre the soldier.
* Use RIGHT BUTTON to fire Machine gun.
* Use LEFT BUTTON to hurl hand grenades.
* Dodge all bullets and grenades. Do not collide with enemy soldiers!
* Destroy as many of the enemy as possible.
* Pick up enemy grenades (one grenade per box) and use them against the enemy.
* Extra 'lives' are awarded for exceeding certain scores.
* Score higher points by destroying enemy leaders and enemy headquarters.
* Score bonus points by rescuing captives.
* The arch bridge is a dangerous spot! Watch for attacks from above!
* Be careful of trucks and jeeps that may try to ram you!
* Do not fall into rivers or ponds.
* Trees, walls and other obstacles can be used for cover.
