Its the future, the cities are in more of a state now than they were once before, gangland murders, pilaging and attacks on innocent people have reached a new high.

You play the role of a Renegade vigilante and its your job to crack down on the gangs that are trying to take over the city.

Graphics

The graphics are amongst the best seen on the Amstrad. From the loading screen, you know youâ??re in for a treat. The characters are well drawn, and the animation is superb. Youâ??re muscled character is adorned in blue jeans and a black leather waistcoat, and the gang clothes are varied from t-shirt and jeans to shades and biker chaps!

Sound

Throughout the game you are treated to good music, starting with a fast paced blues track to get you going, and different tunes when you die, game over etc.

Gameplay

What can I say? Addictive from the start. The controls take a second to get used to, but are very intuitive once you start pummeling your opponents. Separate keys for punching and kicking in different directions add variety to the gameplay. The moves are also varied: you can punch, back kick, jump kick, kneel on a downed opponent and punch them in the face, and kick the bad guys where it hurts when one grabs you from behind! Absolute classic!
