Play Armorines - Project S.W.A.R.M. (USA, Europe) (En,De) Online

Armorines: Project S.W.A.R.M. came out for the Game Boy Color in 1999, published by Acclaim. It was part of that wave of late 90s handheld games trying to bring a more intense, action-heavy experience to the small screen, fitting right in with other sci-fi shooters of the era.

You control a soldier in powered armor, fighting through infested military bases and alien hives. Your main goal is to eliminate the alien swarm threat by completing missions across different environments. The gameplay involves moving screen by screen, using a variety of weapons like a standard rifle, a flamethrower, and grenades to clear out enemies. The pacing is relentless, with bugs often swarming from all directions, and the difficulty can spike unexpectedly, especially when ammo runs low. It feels like a constant, hectic battle for survival where every cleared room brings a brief moment of relief.
