Game Overview

Venus Senki - Back the City (aka The Venus Wars) is a hidden gem on the NES that throws you into a futuristic war on—you guessed it—Venus! Picture this: high-speed hoverbike battles, tactical ground combat, and a race against time to save a city on the brink. The game blends action and strategy in a way that feels ahead of its time, with tight controls and a surprisingly deep mission structure for an 8-bit title.

The fan-translated version (shoutout to J2e!) makes it even more accessible, letting you fully appreciate its anime-inspired story and adrenaline-pumping gameplay. It’s short, intense, and packed with that old-school challenge—perfect for retro gamers craving something off the beaten path.
