Operation Wolf

Game Details:

Developed by Taito in 1987, "Operation Wolf" is one of the most popular light gun shooting games of its time. It uses a side-view, first-person perspective, where players aim and shoot using a simulated light gun or controller. The game features diverse level designs, including enemy bases, jungles, and airports, with mission objectives such as eliminating enemies, destroying equipment, and rescuing hostages. Ammunition and grenades are limited and must be used cautiously. In addition, the game supports automatic or button-activated ammunition replenishment. The game was very popular in arcades and was also ported to platforms like NES, Commodore 64, and ZX Spectrum.

Editor's Recommendation:

If you are interested in old-school shooting games, then "Operation Wolf" is definitely not to be missed. It is not only known for its realistic battlefield atmosphere and fast-paced combat, but also introduced a simulated shooting experience in 80s arcade games. The game has a strong sense of mission, rescuing hostages, and defeating enemies, giving players an immersive sense of tension. Especially, the NES version maintains a good operational experience and is a must-play classic for nostalgic players.

Game Walkthrough:

• Conserve Ammo: Bullets are limited; it is recommended to prioritize eliminating armed enemies and consider skipping or quickly taking down unarmed enemies.
• Use Grenades Wisely: Grenades can quickly clear the field, especially useful when enemies are concentrated or armored targets appear.
• Watch Out for Hostages: Hostages will appear from time to time in the game; accidental injury will result in score deductions or mission failure. Always aim before firing.
• Pick Up Supplies: Enemies may drop ammo or recovery items; pay attention to flashing items and pick them up in time.
• Familiarize Yourself with Levels: Enemy appearances are fixed; remembering enemy waves and hidden spots can help you complete missions faster.
