Play Nexzr Online

Summary

Nexzr on the TurboGrafx‑CD delivers a classic vertical‑scrolling shoot‑em‑up experience that will feel familiar to fans of titles like Super Star Soldier. You pilot a lone spaceship armed initially with a straightforward vulcan gun that fires straight ahead, but a steady stream of power‑ups lets you boost its firepower, swap in a laser, or even add a secondary weapon such as homing missiles or a thin spreading laser that fires automatically.

Each stage is peppered with mid‑ and end‑level bosses, keeping the action intense and demanding quick reflexes. Extra lives drift through the levels, but losing a ship means you’re sent back to the start of the current stage rather than a checkpoint.

The game’s design rewards players who master the timing of upgrades and learn each boss pattern, making Nexzr a satisfying challenge for anyone who loves retro scrolling shooters.

Storyline

In Nexzr, the story opens in 2012 when an alien armada launches a devastating assault on Earth. Amid the chaos, two rookie pilots engage the invaders; one of them, a brave young woman, is killed in the firefight. The surviving pilot is left haunted by her loss.

Three years later, he finally receives a chance for revenge. He pilots the cutting‑edge fighter ship called the Slasher, venturing deep into hostile space to hunt down the alien fleet and exact vengeance for his fallen comrade.
