Fire Shark | Full Play Through | Arcade Cartridge 9 | Evercade VS
3Fire Shark is a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up for one or two players simultaneously. Take on the Strange Fleet armada in the world's most powerful biplane! Grab three "P" icons to power up your shots, an "S" icon to increase your speed, and a coloured token to switch weapons.
HISTORY
Fire Shark is famously one of Toaplan's more difficult shoot 'em ups. Despite offering a hefty challenge, the game was still well-regarded on its original release - particularly by western players, who seemingly appreciated the fact the game put up a bit of a fight.
CADEY SAYS
"The different coloured tokens provide you with different weapons. They each have their own benefits, but you and I both know you're going to grab that flamethrower any time the opportunity presents itself."
