Raid over Moscow

About

Raid over Moscow casts you as a US fighter pilot racing to dismantle Soviet defense bases before a nuclear bomb detonates. The game splits into timed missions where you switch between aircraft, each with distinct controls and objectives. You’ll dogfight enemy jets, navigate collapsing structures, and blast targets under relentless countdowns. The tension comes from balancing speed and precision across these mini-games, all while the bomb timer ticks closer to zero. Developed by Pixelglass for the Amiga CD32, this 1990 title leans into frantic arcade action over story depth. Its split-screen mechanics and rapid shifts in gameplay keep things unpredictable, though the dated visuals and control quirks may test patience. With no multiplayer mode, the focus stays on solo survival against escalating chaos. The game’s cult following stems from its punishing challenge and the developer’s knack for high-speed action, similar to their earlier work Beach Head.
