Red Zone (1992 video game)
Red Zone is a 1992 isometric shooter video game developed by Software Creations and published by U.S. Gold for the Amiga and Atari ST. The game is known for its challenging gameplay, detailed graphics (for its time), and fast-paced action.
The player controls a helicopter on a mission to rescue hostages and destroy enemy installations within a hostile territory. The game features a variety of weapons and power-ups, and requires strategic maneuvering to avoid enemy fire and successfully complete objectives.
Red Zone is particularly notable for its use of a 3D scrolling isometric perspective, which was relatively advanced for home computers of the early 1990s. The game's sound design and music also contributed to its immersive and intense atmosphere. Although praised for its technical achievements and demanding gameplay, some reviewers found the game excessively difficult.
