Destroy your enemies and the alien entity that controls them in this new Contra
The period of Ronald Reagan and later George Bush at the head of the White House had an important impact on pop culture at all levels, and the video game industry, which at that time was beginning to consolidate strongly, did not escape. The Rambo-like heroes from the movies were reflected in excellent titles such as Konami's Contra. In the game, you had to manage some elite commandos of the U.S. Army fighting against a criminal organization and its leaders, naturally, as was common at the time, an alien force.
This classic video game, one of the pillars within the subgenre of arcade action run and gun, is back with a major revamp and various improvements for those who were able to play it back in the day and also for those who can not enjoy it on Android. And everything about this game is good.
