Played this very briefly as a child - not enough to rate. But hoo boy, the premise sure is wild.
Okay, Rocket Ranger seemed cool on paper – jetpacks, Nazis on the moon...what's not to love? But it gets old fast. The gameplay feels clunky, the level design is uninspired, and honestly, even as a kid I knew the whole thing could've been way more epic. It's a nostalgia trip for sure, but not one I'll be taking again anytime soon.
A neat adventure/strategy game with a pulp magazine aesthetic. It does an adequate job of mixing the gameplay, even if it is pretty basic, in with a cinematic WWII narrative.
