Pick it if…

  • you want to fight, blast and test your reflexes

  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing Chase the Express is like

Shooters are built around aiming and firing, from first-person corridor blasters and light-gun games to run-and-gun stages and multidirectional arcade shooters.

Tip for newcomers: Retro shooters were designed for CRT TVs and original controllers; light-gun games in particular need special hardware or alternative controls on modern screens.
