About

Several levels await your super-tough Commando in this arcade conversion. Armed with only a standard rifle and a few grenades you must take on hordes of enemies. Some are wandering around in the open, while others have picked out hiding places, which you must approach from certain angles. Trees, rivers and bridges create a varied combat-like terrain and must be incorporated into your thinking. Extra grenades can be collected, and will definitely be required, as they allow you to kill from distance and thus avoid some enemy shots.

What is happening now

Commando is a browser-based tactical shooter with arcade sensibilities, originally released in 2006. The game draws from a lineage of action-oriented titles, as evidenced by its place alongside other classic arcade and NES-era games in gaming history. While coverage remains limited, the title continues to exist as part of gaming's broader catalog of indie and retro-inspired shooters available through web browsers.
