Isolated Warrior (USA)
Isolated Warrior, known in Japan as Max Warrior: Wakusei Kaigenrei (マックスウォーリアー 惑星戒厳令, Makkusu Uōriā: Wakusei Kaigenrei (lit. "Max Warrior: Martial Law Planet")), is a 1991 video game developed by KID and published in Japan by Vap and in North America and Europe also by Vap with NTVIC as their co-publisher for the NES. It falls in the shooter genre, although its gameplay also includes elements reminiscent of platforming, while it features isometric projection, similar to Sega's Zaxxon.
The game is shown entirely from an overhead perspective, as in traditional top-down shooters. The player must collect weapon upgrades and operate various machines to combat the alien enemies.
Various obstacles, such as pitfalls and land mines, must be avoided. There is a boss battle at the end of each level, and sometimes mid-level as well. The player's progress in the game could be saved using a password system. Between levels, images and text were sometimes displayed which showed Maverick's thoughts or reminiscence about his life.
