Section Z is an arcade machine shooter game released in 1985. The main objective centers on guiding the player’s spaceship through a sprawling, multi-sector space station, battling various enemies and bosses to prevent an alien invasion. The game requires careful navigation and accurate shooting to progress through each sector.
The pace of Section Z arcade is moderately fast, combining strategic movement with continuous shooting challenges. Players must manage their energy levels, which deplete upon contact with enemies or hazards, adding a layer of resource management uncommon in shooters of its era.
A distinctive mechanic in Section Z arcade machine is its non-linear level design, allowing players to move horizontally through different sectors instead of following a strict linear path. This approach offers a unique way to explore and tackle challenges in any order, setting it apart from typical side-scrolling shooters of the mid-1980s.
