Raiders 1941 is a fast-paced, vertical scrolling shoot ‘em up that blends exciting retro action of arcade classics, with modern gameplay up to 120hz refresh rate.
Story:
Choose one of two top-secret experimental planes to fight the Axis threat accross Europe over multiple hectic and challenging levels, ending your mission in Berlin.
Gameplay & Features:
Characters - Traverse the difficult levels using either of the 2 planes, the faster Sparrow, or slower Hawk. Sparrow's regular shot is narrow, but she is a faster plane. Hawk has a spread-shot and is slower. Use your focus/power shot for extra firepower, this will slow down your plane and narrow the shot even more.
