RAID OVER MOSCOW | Commodore 64 (1984)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 มิ.ย. 2024
- Raid Over Moscow, for the Commodore 64, and The USSR have launched a huge attack on the USA, and the only hope for the free world is for you (as leader of a US Squadron of fighters) to destroy their defense bases. This is done in a multi-stage action game with some similarities to the same developer's Beach Head. All the mini-games must be completed before the time limit on the bomb is expired
The first thing you will see is a missile being launched; the game then takes you to your hangar, from which you must quickly launch as many ships as possible, a task made difficult by the limited gravity. You must then fly it into Soviet airspace in a side-view shoot 'em up section, in which staying low keeps you safe from radars, and quick reactions see you shoot enemy fighters and avoid trees

![Raid Over Moscow C64 Longplay [122] Full Playthrough / Walkthrough (no commentary) #c64 #retrogaming](/img/n.gif)
This was a great game, but possibly like most people I gave up on it - I was very young and struggled to control the craft and never figured out to open the doors, so this video is spot on!
I went back to it a couple of years later, read the instructions and breezed out the hanger and what a great game that followed - loved playing through and completing this on a regular basis - awesome!!! 👍
That sounds like the exact same problems as I had as a kid until eventually I read the manual and absolutely loved this classic 😄🕹👌
This game and the Beach Head games made me think I had something no one else knew about while everyone I knew was playing Super Mario Bros.
Rudely difficult, frankly, but SO MUCH fun. The animation was really impressive for the time, especially the rotational aspect of the launch mini-game.
You're right there, a lot of my friends who had prosperous parents could afford the new consoles on the market... alas, I stuck with the C64 and was never disappointed with its array of awesome games. This was no exception, pure classic. I'd rather play this than Mario anyway 🤣🕹👌
This game caused a huge controversy in Finland back in it's day, which is hard to imagine now. Great, atmospheric graphics (if a bit too much grey), splendid animations and unique and mood uplifting, exciting sound effects made this game a real gem. I got stuck at shooting the capital building with the bazooka, as I never knew what I was supposed to do after shooting everything possible.
Challenging, but responsive gameplay and the satisfaction the player gets when shooting something big ensured the success of Raid Over Moscow.
As a sidenote; I can't believe anyone had trouble in getting out from the hangar - it's just the normal inertia-control that is in many games ever since Thrust and Gravitar, just in isometric mode.
A challenging game, yeah I think it was banned in a lot of European countries back in the day. That hanger caused a lot of grief for many back in the day 😄🕹👌
I loved this game! I remember having trouble in the hangar at first as well. It took me a while to understand that you had to use the fire button to elevate the aircraft before opening the hangar door.
I've finished this game many times! Maybe it's a good time to fire it back up and play again for nostalgia! 😊
It's still as good today as it was back then. Definitely a classic for the Commodore 64 😇🕹👌
Great Videos Sir! My nostalgia buttons are pushed! Keep em coming!
Awesome, as long as they're bringing back some good nostalgic memories then that's good to know 😇🕹👌
new video upload notification from CCG is like a kid waiting for christmas morning
That's fantastic to hear... I'll be pumping out some classics Mon-Fri every day, until I have total burnout and need a beer or two 🤣🕹👌
I love this game! I remember the launch screen and just wondering, "hey guys, why don't we store the planes facing the door?" And the final stage gave me a great Tron vibe. Excellent memory.
Such an epic title. Many of us struggled to even leave that hangar haha. I'm hoping that with the tips on the video it will encourage people who couldn't manage it to revisit this classic title. Definitely 'tron' vibes near the end too. Great game 😇🕹👌
I forgot bout this gem. Thanks for the memories as usual!
Am glad these games are bringing back some forgotten memories, there's no better feeling than nostalgia. Thanks for always watching the videos bud 😇🕹👌
A brilliant semi sequel to Beach head. I remember this causing a lot of controversy when it came out. Eventually being re-titled to just Raid! for its spectrum and amstrad releases. I remember the excitement and sense of achievement when i first reached the Kremlin screen. Like everyone took ages to master the hanger screen especially without instructions *cough* 😂
We were all too young to be bothered reading instructions back in the 80s huh haha. Wish this video existed back then as it was frustrating at times 😄🕹👌
Not only a great game, but also a cultural marker of the '80ies Cold War with that big hammer and sickle in the start screen. Truly enjoyed this game 35 years ago...
Absolutely, a very iconic game indeed... one I very much loved to play as a kid and still enjoy testing my skills trying to get out of the hangar bay door as an adult! 😇🕹️👌
Ah one of my firm favourites as a kid❤
My friends could never figure out how to leave the hangar haha, I absolutely love this game 😇🕹👌
One of my favourite games of all time, but damn, flying out of the hanger was hard.
Same, definitely in the top 20 for sure. The hanger was just a completely new game mechanic for its time - once mastered, its pretty straight forward... but yeah, initially its a pain in the backside 😇🕹👌
Many thanks for the playlists per year! Awesome!
Ahh you seen them, awesome - took me aaaaages to put them all into the respective years but I think it will make it much easier to search videos and as they're added am hoping to get some good catalogues of games in each year. Where its a bit thin, I'll concentrate on that year for a while 😇🕹👌
Awesome game! It always fascinated me as a kid. Nice to see it in action again after all these years.❤
Glad you remember this classic too, another one of the Commodore 64 greats 😇🕹👌
I think we've all been stuck in that bloody hangar for ages, but once you manage it, it becomes easy as pie. This was a great game, and I am a bit upset you didn't show the coolest thing - blasting one of the minarets off the top of the Kremlin and bringing it crashing down tip first onto the Soviet tank trying to shoot you! LOL, you're forgiven. Absolute gem, glad you covered it.
Ah of course... I suppose time was against me and I just forgot - but this is an absolute gem of a game isn't it - like you say, the toughest challenge is actually getting those darned planes out of the hanger. Practice makes perfect 😇🕹️👌
Somewhat topical this one!
There's been a few call of duty games that topped that bill but yes, I agree 🤣🕹👌
'Are you keeping up with the CCG - cause the CCG is keeping up with you!!'
In a world of fun and fantasy and really great reviews..........😅😅😅
Awesome, thankyou 😄🕹👌 I like it
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer I'd never heard this advert before, until I came across your channel - now I find myself singing and humming it constantly!!!
When you get fed up, I always make sure to chapter the videos just after the intro hahaha 😇🕹👌
I can only remember that hangar and the map. I don't think i ever made it out of the hangar as a kid.
There were many who were in the same boat 🤣🕹👌 a toughie for sure
Stop that war Putin....otherwise I will play this game again and now I know how to get out of that damn hanger. Great review again mate. 👍
That hangar was the bane of my life as a kid, until I eventually sussed it out. Great game 😇🕹👌
Another classic, although I was too young to understand the ideological controversy surrounding the game, until it came out on the Speccy and the name was truncated to Raid, all that aside It was a great game to play and I did enjoy trying to blow up parts of the Soviet Union. But the game was educational as well, I never heard of half of those places in the Soviet Union until I played this game :)
Didn't have a clue about the politics, was 4 when I first played it 😇🕹👌
Spot on :)
Hopefully it brought back some good memories 😇🕹👌
Another seminal c64 game and one I finished at least a couple of times. It drew some inspiration from Zaxxon and Tron Deadly Discs. Good fun and oh the controversy.
Yeah this and Beach Head had a sort of horizontal Zaxxon-esque for sure. Bruce Carver had such a unique style of game development and also some pretty pioneering concepts with the gameplay and mini-game levels... just awesome to have grown up with games like this. Pure nostalgia 😇🕹👌
Topical!
It's a mad world currently huh 🤯🕹👌
Finally a game I was GOOD at!
Takes some precision does this game though doesn't it, especially when shooting the silos. Was like 5 mini-games rolled into one - similarly to Beach-Head... Awesome 😇🕹👌
Really nice game especially for that era, reminds me a bit of the Firefox movie ; But that door :P. My tactic is to stay low most of the time get it stable not to far from the door, climb just enough to be able to open door, F7 and then quickly make a dive for it :) If you love Zaxxon, you are going to like this one as well
Yeah Zaxxon was another one, that and Andrew Braybrooks 'Alleykat' all great isometric games. One of the best this one though, very immersive and addictive 😇🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer Just learned that the same guy(s) made Beach Head - makes a lot of sense addiction/immersion wise - only now I connect those dots better late than never I guess :P
Bruce Carver yeah, that feller had loads of talent. Such a shame he died so young 😞🕹👌
Very good game with plenty to do, but, honestly, I hardly ever managed to get out of the hangar :/
It was really hard to master the flying part in the hangar, hopefully the video will help a little 😇🕹👌
LOOOVVVEEEDD this game but never completed it. Seem to remember to get out the hanger you had to have a controller in a different port. I only had 1 so had to switch ports quickly, open the doors and switch back sharpish.
Seem to remember the game name was changed too. I had this one though.
May dig it out on the steamdeck this weekend.
F7 for the hangar 😎🕹👌 great game, I love the steam deck... might have to stick one on my santa clause list if I ever can afford one hehe
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer I remember hitting every key imaginable and it would sometimes open. Why did they hate us so back then? Would it have killed them to have a page with controls?
Haha I linked the manual on the video description, all of us were too lazy back in the 80s. Who reads manuals!!?? even now it takes me half an hour to get anything new going haha 😇🕹👌
Oh I loved this game.... wasting hours of my lifetime with it ;-)
Brilliant memories I bet though - hey, was you like the rest of us trying yo get through the hangar too? Was a pain sometimes that part 😇🕹👌
Awesome game
Brilliant game, love all the different playing styles with the mini-game concept 😇🕹👌 very memorable
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer absolutely!
Lol everyone always mentions the hangar. Did everyone have a copy with no instructions? Great game though, amazing for the time.
Never game manuals back in the day Haha was too excited yet ironically painstakingly patieny waiting for the bugger to load - should have used that time to learn the controls, looking back. Yeah an absolute classic this, such an epic title 😄🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer Funnily enough, I always read them whilst waiting for the game to load! That robot had some real personality, and by that I mean I disliked him immensely.
Haha I know what you mean, I used to ask my brother to help me with the 'tough bits' back in the day, gah! The memories though 😇🕹👌
I have played the atari version, I have to say the commodore 64 version it is much better.
Yeah you're probably right, the C64 version was king. But... the Atari was an awesome nostalgic machine too 😇🕹👌
@CheekyCommodoreGamer can you explain why was it better on the C64 version? The atari 800 xl had the 64k of ram as well.
i couldnt possibly explain, as all games are subjective my friend. Do you like brunettes or blondes? 😇🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer I prefer redheads.
brilliant, love it - stay retro bro 😇🕹️👌
Define "political correct video-game-title"
Great game, very nostalgic 😇🕹👌
