A port of Desert Strike: Return to the Gulf
The player controls the helicopter from an overhead, isometric perspective. The Apache is equipped with three weapon types: a machine gun and two types of missiles of different strength. During the missions, the player must beware anti-aircraft guns, missile launchers and tanks, outmaneuvering enemy fire or destroying the enemy weaponry. The Apache is destroyed if its fuel runs out, or if the armor (functioning as health) is completely depleted. However, armor can be replenished by bringing back MIA soldiers and prisoners of war back to the landing zone. There are also fuel, ammo and armor pickups available on the field.

An ok port of the 'Strike' series to handheld. That doesn't make it good though.
These games were tricky in their original format. On handheld they are a little more clunky. This version on the Lynx has sloppy controls and graphics aren't that great in helping you distinguishing enemy targets (aside from maybe the main objective).
Ok to pass on.
