The Force Project, lead by Dr.Che Garcia, an
international physicist and terrorist, is tries to take over
the world. Last Alert is a military action game and
the player's goal is to guide Guy Kazama and stop
the evil Dr. Garcia, helped by an arsenal of different
weapons and other offensive items. The game counts six vast
areas, from a gigantic enemy base to a deep jungle or snowing and
icy terrain. Levels are split into different sub-missions. You will either
have to clean up an area and defeat the boss, or strategically
drop bombs or rescue hostages. You start with a simple shot gun,
but you can acquire more experience as you defeat enemies and
gain levels and classes. As your ranks gets higher, you access
better and more powerful weapons.

The american version seems to have the worse translated japanese and
voice acting ever done for a PC Engine CD game. But I guess that,
because of budget limitations, a small amount of people ended up
doing all the character voices and it must have been hard for them
to create so many variarions.

Red Alert looks average at first but it is a huge game, with
vast and intense missions. There are so many things to accomplish,
and tasks are varied and interesting without forgetting the evolving
and complex story plot. Graphics could have been better though,
this is the detail that kind of repulsed me at first and sprites
are a bit too small. I happened to also play the american version
and, on top of horrible game cover art work, the voice acting in
the game is the most laughable I have ever heard. Extremely
funny. Anyway, Red Alert is a bit dated now but is
still a correct military action game.
