Game Overview

Area 88 on the SNES is one of those games that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go. You start as a mercenary pilot stuck in a warzone, scrambling to earn cash for plane repairs and upgrades—because if you don’t, the next mission might be your last. The first time I played, I blew all my money on missiles, only to realize too late I should’ve saved for armor. Classic rookie mistake.

The dogfights are frantic, with enemy fighters swarming like angry hornets, and the soundtrack nails that desperate, war-is-hell vibe. It’s not just about shooting things down, either. You’re constantly weighing risks: Do you take the high-paying suicide mission or play it safe? One wrong call, and you’re staring at a game over screen.

If you’re into tough-as-nails retro shooters with actual stakes, this one’s a gem. Just don’t expect any mercy.
