Jackal (World, 8-way Joystick) — About this game
Jackal (World, 8-way Joystick) sends armed jeeps through enemy camps to collect prisoners and deliver them to evacuation helicopters. Solitary prisoners improve the grenade launcher, and delivering a full load of eight also upgrades it. The launcher faces with the jeep while the standard overseas machine gun fires toward the top of the screen. Losing a jeep scatters its passengers and reduces the launcher by one level.
