Soldier Kyle Reese travels from the distant future to 1984 Los Angeles to protect a young woman named Sarah Connor in this console adaptation of James Cameron's cult film. Designed as a platform shooter, you control Kyle through a total of six levels. Climb ladders, leap across ledges, and do battle with a number of enemies, both man and machine, while being relentlessly pursued by a futuristic assassin known as the Terminator, portrayed by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movie. Use your fists and feet, throw grenades, and fire a machine gun to defeat the opposition. Four stages take place on foot, while two stages are high-speed driving sequences. Prevent the Terminator from fulfilling his objective to win the game.
