How to Play

In Rush'n Attack, you play as a special forces soldier infiltrating enemy territory. Your primary goal is to advance from left to right across each stage, defeating enemy soldiers and avoiding hazards to reach and rescue prisoners of war.

You start armed only with a combat knife for close-range attacks, but you can occasionally pick up limited-use weapons like a flamethrower or a rocket launcher dropped by certain enemies. Jumping and precise timing are essential to dodge attacks and navigate platforms.

The game is known for its fast-paced, challenging combat where enemies approach from both the ground and air. Early on, focus on learning enemy patterns and conserving special weapons for tougher foes or crowded situations.

As you progress, the levels become more complex with obstacles like barbed wire and pits, requiring careful movement. Tense moments often involve multiple enemies attacking at once, so prioritize eliminating ranged threats quickly and use jumps to create space.
