Metal Gear

A port (from the MSX2 computer) of Metal Gear, the game that started the famous series. The protagonist's mission is to infiltrate the enemy's fortress and destroy a secret weapon called, of course, Metal Gear. In the tradition of the series, it is not so much a matter of fighting the enemies as of sneaking past them without raising any alarms. You will also need to find important items and talk to other characters. There are a number of changes from the original. Some things from the MSX2 version are not in the game, but some new things are added - jungle and some confusing mazes. Also, unlike the original, there is a password system. All the main components - graphics, sound and gameplay - are top notch. Snake's Revenge continued on the NES.
