Intriguing stealth game with an overhead viewpoint. Get the drop on enemies at various enemy bases (though if possible you can just get by them) and make your way to the red Xs where you will plant a bomb. You don't collect bombs to drop there-- you automatically have them. Once you plant enough bombs on the Xs you need to make your way to the exit at the far right (it's not marked; an open wall will be the exit). Various square icons lay about and can be picked up to replenish your weapon, or get you a new one (either a sweet missile launcher that can mow through multiple enemies for lots of points, or an extra smart bomb which takes out a screen full of enemies). You can hug a wall to avoid some shots or to more easily get the drop on an approaching enemy-- pretty cool! You can also goad the enemies into shooting each other, which gives you double points! Interesting strategy/stealth game with a Sega Genesis release. Suggested by YouTube user dospistos.
