Remember Jackal? Man, that game brought me right back to being a kid huddled around the NES. Crazy 8-bit soundtrack, blasting jeeps, rescuing POWs – it's pure old-school arcade chaos. A bit rough around the edges now, but still a blast if you're feeling nostalgic.
Absolutely in love with Jackal. It feels so good to rush your little tank through the environments turning, somewhat, on a dime just blowing everything up. Unfortunately, I'm just not very good at it! I'll continue to keep picking away it here and there and maybe one day everyone will get rescued on the helicopter, but today is just not that day.
juego de aventura que me trae muchos recuerdos de la juventu.
5 star because of nostalgia
This is the easiest scrolling retro shooter I have ever played, as evidenced by the fact that I actually beat it instead of lighting the game on fire during the first boss.
It's alright. It's definitely "good" for the time but - believe it or not - the NES top down shooter with 6 levels and full game overs in which you can do a full run in 30 minutes is slightly less exciting today.

Played this with my grandparents as a child... bitter sweet memories now. Probably not as good as my ranking, but you know.
