Play Desert Strike Advance Online
You pilot an Apache through tight missions, weighing fuel against targets while pixel-perfect explosions reward risky shots—pure handheld chaos that’ll have you sneaking in "one more run" anytime.
Desert Strike Advance came out for the Game Boy Advance in 2002, developed by Fluid Studios and published by Electronic Arts. It was part of that wave of classic 16-bit era ports and original titles that filled the GBA library in its early years, offering a portable version of a familiar isometric shooter formula.
You control an Apache helicopter across a series of grid-based missions, rescuing POWs, destroying enemy structures, and managing limited fuel and ammunition. The game plays out screen by screen, requiring you to clear each area of threats before advancing. Careful resource management is key, as running out of fuel or taking too much damage will fail the mission. The pacing is deliberate, almost tactical, forcing you to prioritize targets and plan your route. It feels tense and satisfying when a well-planned assault comes together without a hitch.
