1985, the year The Vikings was released on Commodore 64 as well as Amstrad CPC. Made by Kele Line Ltd. and published by Status Software, this action game is available for free on this page.
Tiger Mission is a vertical scrolling shooter in which the player controls a helicopter. The objective is easy to explain: destroy the enemy base at the end of five levels and avoid destruction itself. Attackers only appear on the ground and the use of the standard cannon usually takes care of them. In addition, there is a limited amount of smart bombs available that can be triggered at any time to wipe out everything on the screen.
Extras can be picked up after shooting at boxes on the ground: smart bombs go to the inventory, while everything else, e. g. turbo speed or better range, are limited in time and are used immediately after picking them up. After losing one of the three lives, you have to restart the current level from the beginning.
