How to Play

In Front Line, you control a lone soldier advancing through enemy territory from a top-down perspective. Your objective is to reach the enemy headquarters at the end of each stage while avoiding or eliminating enemy soldiers, tanks, and other obstacles.

You can move in eight directions and use your rifle to shoot enemies. Some enemies drop power-ups when defeated, including grenades for area attacks and temporary invincibility.

The game requires careful movement and strategic use of cover, as enemies approach from all directions. Early on, focus on learning enemy patterns and conserving health.

In tense moments, use grenades to clear groups of enemies quickly. The challenge increases as you progress, with more aggressive enemies and complex terrain.
