I fought in the war, and I defeated the enemy with my flash kick!

Nice! Did he fly across the surface already in the laying down position?

@@qubonic No, but he served under General Mills. General Mike Mills.

Congraturation!

[@TeddyBelcher4kultrawide]

I love this game it’s still nice

[@craigluft7453]

the detail and color on the main character sprite is pretty impressive for the NES. during some screens, you might think this was a Turbografx-16 game.

Congraturation! 18:28 😂

About time someone TASed this game.

[@PTRF_One]

This game had one of the most terrifying death screams, which is why I'm glad there is none of that in this run. Seriously, nightmare fuel in audio.

i love how you can pass half of the game just walking

[@rashidisw]

The enemy logic a lot more reasonable than the arcade counterpart, where whenever the player do a Jump maneuver the enemy decided to froze on the spot until the player lands. The NES counterpart has none of it.

Any game with rifle butt-smashing is automatic 10/10.

This looks like a game I would've played in the late 80's as a kid, though it's somewhat lacking in distinction from other beat-em-ups in 2023. Good game, though.

[@dycedargselderbrother5353]

That was probably the consensus at the time. P.O.W. was a mid-tier game both in the arcades and at home. Despite being more of a beat 'em up than a shooter, it still occupied the same space and competed against SNK's own Ikari Warriors and Guerilla War, which are very similar in theme. In the beat 'em up/hack 'n slash space, P.O.W. was below games like Double Dragon, Shinobi, Bad Dudes, and Ninja Warriors in terms of popularity.

I had this game. It was horrendous.
