Bionic Commando
Bionic Commando Rearmed retains the basic 2D platform game of the original NES title. The player plays as Nathan “Rad” Spencer, a soldier who has been enhanced through a bionic arm that includes a grappling hook that he can fire to reach distant objects. In each game level, the player must navigate to an end goal, facilitated by using the bionic arm to swing across gaps or climb to higher ledges. Often, the player must make a series of grappling actions in a row to successfully traverse the level; a wide gap may be crossed by repeating grappling and swinging on the roof above it. The player can use Spencer’s equipped weapon to fire on foes; new weapons are earned after defeating bosses that are at the end of some levels. There are also objects that must be found before certain areas can be entered; for example, the player must locate flares that can then allow Spencer to pass through dark areas. Throughout the areas are communications rooms where the player can contact friendly headquarters or hack into the enemy computer system to learn more information about the level.
The levels are presented to the player as a tactical map showing each friendly and enemy area. The player controls a helicopter to move between areas, and then can select to land in that level. Simultaneously enemy convoys will also move between areas; if the player lands on a space occupied by a convey, they will need to fight their way through the convoy before proceeding.
