Hellfire Zone description
Helicopter arcade game, Vista review – at the junction of the third-person and isometric, although you can include the first person.
The title screen A shot from the intro
The plot is fairly conventional (need to save from captivity captured in enemy territory, pilots), we manage the Apache helicopter. Weapons – onboard machine guns (infinite ammo) and missiles (limited ammo); collect the extra ammo can from the ground, if close to him to fly. Enemies – infantry, tanks, air defense installations (on the ground), airplanes and helicopters (in the air). To save their comrades will need to destroy enemy buildings.
Spectacular & realistic explosions! Your helicopter In-flight shot The pilot you have to save
Graphics in the game, I must say, simply amazing, and here not only the full 3D, but very interesting special effects (especially the destruction of our helicopter in the case of direct contact with him); on the other hand, it looks too unreal. After the release of the game was not just low, but positively scathing assessment in the press, which is why at the moment almost forgotten. Of course, if viewed as an 'substitute' of the famous series of Strike s – it really can seem miserable. But if you like a completely independent game (which it actually is) – it is quite a good and entertaining thing you can be happy to play a couple of evenings.
Oh no! Shot down
