Desert Strike Return To The Gulf is a 1993 Atari Lynx shooter game that places players in control of an attack helicopter during a military conflict. The main objective revolves around completing a series of missions that involve rescuing hostages, destroying enemy installations, and collecting supplies to maintain helicopter health and fuel levels.
The game features a strategic pace, balancing action with careful resource management and navigation across a large, scrolling map. Players must plan their approach to each mission, avoiding enemy fire and environmental hazards while prioritizing targets.
A distinctive mechanic in Desert Strike Return To The Gulf is its top-down perspective combined with realistic helicopter controls and varied mission objectives. This creates a unique blend of shooter gameplay and tactical decision-making uncommon in other 1993 Atari Lynx titles. The game's unusual idea lies in simulating helicopter warfare with an emphasis on both combat and rescue operations, setting it apart from typical fast-paced shooters.
