Commando Raid
Players take control of a stationary cannon and attempt to shoot down enemy android paratroopers before they can raid their village.
Overview
Commando Raid is a 1982 shoot-'em-up released byU.S. Games for Atari 2600 (Platform). It has been compared toMissile Command (Game), but the player has more direct control over their shots. The story involved android paratroopersattacking an unnamed locale, and the player's goal is to shoot them down before they invade and destroy the nearby cities. The androids could also tunnel under the player's cannon and set off explosives to destroy it. Later levels employed bomber jets that would wipe out complete cities if their payload reaches a target. CCE (Company) released a version later titled Normandy Landing. Nothing about the in-game content was changed, but the backstory made it seem as if the player were defending a castle in Normandy (Location), France (Location).
