Super Spy ((ザ・スーパー・スパイ)) is an early SNK game, made in 1990 for the Neo Geo. It is a first-person shooter and beat 'em up game in which players move through the many floors of an office building shooting terrorists.[1]

Story

The story revolves around a C.I.A agent, named Roy Heart[2], who needs to traverse office buildings, and warehouses to stop a group of terrorists, known as the Zolge King terrorist group, lead by a man name King (who bears a slight resemblance to Geese Howard in his business suit from the Fatal Fury and The King of Fighters franchises, both also by SNK). The group is responsible for the horrible murders of thousands caused by destroying the subways with bombs. As Mr. Heart, the player hunts through the terrorists' bomb factory for those responsible.[3]

Gameplay

The A button is for punches, and can be used to throw right hooks by pushing the stick diagonal-up either way and punch. A punch combination is done by tapping A repeatedly.

B button is used for kicks and knee smashes. Players can hold down the button for stronger attacks. Players can also pistol-whip enemies, if the B button is pressed while armed with the pistol.

Blocking is done by holding A and B correspondingly, right before the enemy attacks. Ducking is done by simply holding down. However if punch or kick is pressed while ducking, then an uppercut or a knee smash will be executed. Players can bob and weave, duck, and block, and sidestep enemies' attacks and deliver stronger blows. Alongside the martial arts expertise, the weapons of choice are a knife (which becomes rusty and dull with use), a pistol, and an occasional machine gun.[4]
