Description
Western Electronic Arts helicopter action, second Strike installment where the pilot faces former Soviets in post-collapse USSR in isometric view. Created by Electronic Arts, released in 1996 in the United States and Japan, 1997 in Europe, France and Germany with revision and EDC edition under the Soviet Strike title. Over five large open-map isometric missions, helicopter armed with cannons and missiles, objective and fuel management and electronic rock soundtrack. Multi-regional edition with revision and EDC under the Soviet Strike title.
A top down strategic action game from Electronic Arts, Soviet Strike extends the Strike helicopter series into post Cold War missions blending shooting, rescue and fuel and ammo management. The tactical pace, the freedom of approaching objectives and a more mature staging strengthen the formula. The demanding piloting and a high difficulty call for discipline. A good action strategy game to recommend for fans of helicopter missions and methodical old fashioned challenge.
