You are in a low flying aircraft, and your mission is to destroy all the bridges you come to whilst following the path of a river.

This is one of the few times that I wish I had a joystick, although the keyboard controls are simple. The reason for this is that I got so involved that my fingers became numb after about two hours just using left/right and fire.

The scenery scrolls towards you, giving you the impression of moving forwards. All the time you are blasting bridges, the enemy is after you with aircraft, tanks, ships and balloons.

Of course, you soon run out of fuel, so you have to find fuel dumps in the river and fly over them. Some of the hazards are very cleverly placed, if you miss them you hit your fuel dump. The further up river you get, the more dangers you face, including very narrow river banks.

The graphics are ordinary ships, tanks, etc, and everything works smoothly. I found it a very addictive game. As soon as my fingers have recovered, I am going to try it again.
