Raiden (Japan) — About this game
Raiden (Japan) takes the Fighting Thunder through eight battlefields before beginning a harder loop. Weapon upgrades and collected bombs support the assault, with bombs clearing enemy fire across a wide area. Medals add a scoring target among the moving threats, while hidden Miclus and fairy bonuses reward discoveries. In cooperative play, firing into the other aircraft creates an additional spread of damaging projectiles.
