FINAL SOLDIER

Final Soldier is the second of the Star Soldier saga (after Super Star Soldier) to be released for the PC Engine system, and can be considered as the third episode of the series. Before you start, you are asked to select your type of weapon from a list of four: Laser, E-Beam, Fire and Missile. Still, you will be able to switch to another weapon during the game by collecting 'V', 'L', 'F' or 'E' floating icons. Other power-ups can also be picked up, 'M' for missiles and an orange pod will give you a floating option (up to two). This option can turned into a devastative bomb by pressing the other fire button. The game counts seven stages from the usual deep-space backdrops, to desert and forests, to organic and hard to describe alien designs.

Final Soldier was part of the Caravan Competition organized by Hudson Soft in 1990 and a Special Version of the game exists. It comes as a single HuCard and offers the usual Time Attack modes. (See Super Star Soldier for more information about the Caravan Competition).

P O V s		Final Soldier is slightly disappointing, after the excellent Super Star Soldier I was expecting something great, but this episode is rather weak. It is not a bad shooter, but it is the (relatively) worse of the three Star Soldier series of games for the PC Engine (if we do not include Star Parodia). All the other episodes have better effects and much nicer graphic design overall.
