Top Gun (game)

Top Gun is a popular Nintendo game in which the player has to complete four missions:

  • Mission 1 - Training for the next mission.
  • Mission 2 - Destroy an enemy aircraft carrier.
  • Mission 3 - Destroy an enemy base.
  • Mission 4 - Destroy an enemy space shuttle.

All four missions require the player to land on an aircraft carrier at the end. Missions 2, 3 and 4 require the player to refuel in the middle of the mission. Mission 4 is the most surreal, involving combat with land, sea, air, and space targets. A well-known strategy for winning the game is to tilt the stick back and fly above the range of enemy ships and land-based vehicles (as well as most enemy aircraft).

There are three missile types available:

  • Hound (quantity: 40);
  • Wolf (quanity: 20);
  • Tiger (quantity: 10).

The Hound is the best missile for training, since there are no targets on Mission 1 strong enough to withstand it, but it is a weak choice for the other missions.
