Bazooka Blitzkrieg is a shoot 'em up released in 1992 for the Super Nintendo, developed by Bandai Namco. It blends shoot 'em up and action elements.

It came out in the SNES's second year on the market. Other notable SNES releases from 1992 include The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Super Mario Kart and Final Fantasy V.

Bandai Namco also made Dragon Ball Z: Super Butōden, Dragon Ball Z: Hyper Dimension and Power Rangers Zeo: Battle Racers for the SNES.

Bazooka Blitzkrieg is a single-player game, so it's one to enjoy at your own pace.

Pick it if…

  • you want to fight, blast and test your reflexes
  • you have time for a quick session (under an hour, or endless arcade fun)
  • you've played the SNES hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you dislike high difficulty and screens full of bullets
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing Bazooka Blitzkrieg is like

Shoot 'em ups (shmups) put you in a ship facing waves of enemies and bullets. Runs are short and intense, and the goal is to survive, collect power-ups and push your high score.

Tip for newcomers: Focus on your ship's small hitbox rather than the flood of bullets, and learn which power-ups suit each stage. Most shmups are designed to be replayed many times.
