Contra Force is a group of special forces led by Burns, whose task is to defeat the crime syndicate known as DNME. The story happens in the fictional metropolis of Neo City in the same year of the release, 1992. Konami decided to make North America the only release location for the spin-off, leaving the huge European market off as well.
The game was also planned to be released in Japan, under the title of Arc Hound, but it was cancelled in the end. You have to remember to do this as you will find power-ups hidden in strange places.
What's nice about the overhead screens is the fact that you don't just charge straight head, rather you can move around almost everywhere giving you the chance to explore the whole level. Finally, like the original Contra, the levels in this version alternate game play from side scrolling to overhead views. This game is still like Contra though, because there is still plenty of action, and you have to fight your way through the various areas, then destroy the end boss in each level of the game. Another difference is that you don't find your weapon, as each character has their own specialized weapons at the start of the game. In the beginning of the game, you can pick which of the four characters you want to use. The biggest difference in this game is that there now are four players instead of two to choose from. However, it is not just another sequel as Konami has made some changes. This 8 bit version continues the same tradition set by the previous Contras. Contra is coming to both the Super Nintendo and the Nintendo Entertainment System.
