Les clones de Ikari III - The Rescue (USA)
Arcade version
Unlike the previous two games, this game features hand-to-hand combat as well as weapons. The characters had more "life-like" designs (instead of the "super deformed" versions in the previous two games).
The presidential candidate's child has been kidnapped by an enemy terrorist party. Top officials have asked the 2 best soldiers to secretly take action on this matter.
While the game still uses the rotary joystick, a version exists that forgoes the rotary feature altogether.
The weapon selection is greatly reduced from prequels, and there are no player usable vehicles. Weapons are much rarer, which makes the game more focused on hand to hand combat.
For the first time in the series, there are discrete stages.
