Summary
Action Fighter lets you rip through the streets on a souped‑up superbike before morphing that two‑wheeler into a sleek sports car and then, with a pair of turbojets, into a full‑blown aircraft. The transformation isn’t just cosmetic – each mode brings its own arsenal for blasting enemy vehicles and gun emplacements, and the game even throws in a jetski, a helicopter and a Formula One racer as you progress. The helicopter stages switch to a classic vertically scrolling shooter, giving the sky a fresh, arcade‑style feel. What really sticks with me is the sense of constantly upgrading on the fly; you collect parts during each level and instantly feel the power boost as your ride evolves. When it landed on the Master System, Computer and Video Games gave it an impressive 89 % in 1989, a nod to how well the game blended vehicular combat with the era’s frantic action.
