Get in and do the dirty job that the regulars couldn't handle.

Central Africa is the location for your next dirty assignment, and this is certainly no safari!

Whilst on a peace-keeping mission, a group of Zutulan revolutionaries has kidnapped the former US President and, for diplomatic reasons, this is no job for the GIs.

Instead, you as former Green Beretio Gibson and a friend as Mercs Founder Howard Powell, must take your elite force into the jungle and track down the bad guys before a coup takes place.

It's going to be tough going from the very start, but only you and your comrade can stop the revolutionaries from upsetting the balance of power. Starting off, you are dropped onto a supposedly unguarded beach head.

Wrong! It appears to be very well guarded indeed, so it's straight into trigger pulling mode and get gunning to make your way through to the enemy camp. Once at the camp, you must destroy the rebel troops to thwart their plans of a military coup. Succeed, and you're off again, this time to the harbour, to stop the rebels arms smuggling racket.

Your next stop in this hard-hitting, frantically fast shoot-'em-up, is the swamp. Messy business, but it's the best route to the President and the rebels' HQ.

At all times, keep your eyes peeled for the crates in your path, as they contain vital energy and special weapons. Shoot them, pick them up and keep on going.

Doing away with the rebel HQ is, unfortunately, only a means to an end, as the rebels have already escaped with the President on the railway.

Taking particular care about their rearguard, you must track them to their final resting place at the airbase.

In a final, furious shoot out, you must destroy the heart of the rebel resistance, before hurtling out onto the runway to stop the Hercules transporter plane from taking off.

If it does, you've lost the president and missed out on your money, so pay special attention to it at all times during the crossfire.

Got the message? Mercs is non-stop action from start to finish, running at a furious pace and jam-packed with excitement to keep you well and truly addicted until the bitter end.

Use your megabombs with care and be sure to pick up a few medals along the way as souvenirs in this excellently crafted blast.

Plenty of colourful graphics and superb sound effects make this one a guaranteed winner.
