Is Caravan Shooting Collection still worth playing in 2026?
A Hudson compilation gathering Caravan versions of Star Soldier and Hector, designed for time limited scoring over two and five minutes. The timed challenge concept remains the very essence of old school competitive shooting, snappy and demanding. The bundled games show their age graphically and the Japan exclusivity complicates access. A niche compilation for fans of score attack shmups and nostalgics of the Caravan competitions Hudson ran in the 80s.
