Our verdict
Action Fighter is a nice slice of 1980s Sega arcade action.
Action Fighter is a vertically scrolling shooter from Sega, built around a transforming combat vehicle. You start on a motorcycle and, by collecting parts, turn it into a sports car and eventually a flying craft.
Gameplay
The game’s transforming vehicle is its main feature:
- Motorcycle: Start on a fast bike that can jump over water.
- Sports car: Collect parts to transform into a car.
- Aircraft: Add turbojets to take to the skies.
- Enemies: Fight helicopters and jet spaceships.
The transformations keep the action varied.
Verdict
Action Fighter is a fun, varied shooter with a great transforming-vehicle idea. It’s short and simple, but enjoyable.
