Hunter Patrol is a shoot 'em up written by Steve Lee for the Commodore 64 and published by Mastertronic in 1985.[2] The music was composed by Rob Hubbard. The game is similar in style to the Sega arcade game Buck Rogers: Planet of Zoom.

Gameplay

[edit]

Taking control of a WW2 airplane, the player attacks enemy installations on the ground whilst avoiding enemy planes and flak. Once a sufficient number of installations are destroyed, the level's main target appears. When this had been taken care of the player moves on to the next level with the rewards of a score bonus and an extra life.[3]
