Fortified Zone (Game Boy - Jaleco - 1991 - FAH)

This top down action shooter is a fun experience, if you manage not to get lost in the maze-like levels. The graphics are good and the controls are responsive. I have often seen the cover in several magazines back in the days, but I’ve never really played this game until recently, thanks to the re-release on 3DS’s Virtual Console. I was quickly lost in my playthrough and got game overed several times. I concluded that I was not as patient as I used to be. That or I don’t have this much time to spare.
