Line of Fire

About

Line of Fire is a fast-paced arcade shooter where players take turns or team up to blast through waves of enemies. The goal is simple: survive as long as possible while trading the controller or sharing it with a partner. Each round mixes quick reflexes and basic aiming, with explosive firepower that feels satisfyingly heavy for an 80s game. The Amiga and CPC versions keep the chaos tight and responsive, even if the visuals lean into chunky pixel art. What sets it apart is the co-op twist, letting two players alternate or team up to stretch playtime. It’s a rare pick for its era, blending competitive and cooperative play in a genre that usually kept players isolated. While not impressive by today’s standards, it holds a cult following for its brisk action and Sega’s early experiments with shared gameplay. Over 30 years old but still a quick hit for those hunting nostalgia.
