A classic arcade game inspired by Commando (arcade, 1985). Play as Rambo. Armed with a rifle and grenades, you must cross an area occupied by enemy soldiers, destroy tanks, navigate minefields, and so on.
A notable difference from the arcade version: one joystick. You can only shoot in the direction you’re facing, which makes the game pretty darn difficult, if that was even needed!
Its sequel, Victory Road: The Pathway to Fear, was released in 1989 on Amiga.
In the same vein, check out Heavy Barrel (arcade, 1987). And if you prefer fantasy: Vandyke (1991).
