Summary

Raiden Trad drops you into an overhead vertical‑scrolling shooter that faithfully mirrors its arcade predecessor. Early on you can collect two distinct weapon upgrades, letting you switch firepower on the fly, and you’ll also find two missile types – a straight‑shooting version and a homing variant that tracks foes. The game hands you a handful of bombs at the start; a well‑timed bomb can wipe out the screen‑filling swarms that threaten to trap you. Every stage builds toward a massive boss encounter, often featuring multiple heads or phases that test the upgrades you’ve gathered. The blend of tight controls, upgrade strategy, and dramatic endings keeps the action feeling fresh even after countless runs.
